New install of Windows 7 64-bit New install of Firefox 28

Going to setup my sync, enter the user, pass & recovery key. It hangs on Verifying for more than five minutes.

Then shows error: failed to connect to the server See screenshots: http://i.gyazo.com/0d19d680eae937fa27ace5df59caaa5d.png

This has been happening for the last 12 hours.

The System Status (https://services.mozilla.com/status) Says: 'The Firefox Sync service is operating normally. There are no known problems at this time. '

I have tried disabling firewall and I'm just using MS Security Essentials.

Please advise? Thanks.

Thanks for letting us know. I'll close down this thread so it can be removed from the workflow.
