I get the message: "the connection has timed out" when accessing my online bankingsite. I never had this problem before loading Firefox. There are a few sites that give me this problem. I have cleared my cookies cache, cleared history cache, cleared my security offline storage,

Nothing works.

I have the same problem. I thought it was our Wireless, but it isn't. It only happened since downloading 3.6.6 FF. We have two computers and its the same on both. Have tried numerous suggestions, but nothing works... Would love to know if someone has a suggestion.

I went to Norton and they were trying to help me, even to the point of removing Norton. They figured it was a firewall problem and I agree. They were not able to help me, but I shut the computer down, unplugged the modem and router, waited about 10 minutes and then started plugging everything in. It all works fine. I think the error message was cached in the memory and it needed to be reset to erase it.

Hope this helps.
