Yesterday I updated to V54. This morning on startup there was a fleeting message (I think) showing Firefox updating. Glasswire showed Firefox download, eventually up to 20MB, neglible upload, just normal W10 checking the connection Network centre showed no Internet connection. Eventually download stopped and Network Centre showed Internet connection. Now all seems Ok. Any ideas? Ron

Was Firefox updated or not?

Some protection programs don't like the update/install stubs. Go here for the full installer.

Some problems occur when your Internet security program was set to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow Firefox to connect to the Internet again;

  • Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
  • Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
