When I want to connect to the server from my desktop I get the message that Firefox can't establish a connection at en-us.start3.mozilla.com. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox and the same thing happened. However, Firefox works from my laptop.

After trying the suggestions, which didn't work, I decided to remove the program and then download it again. To my complete surprise the new program not only worked but it contained my bookmarks, etc. It's so nice to have Firefox back in use!

Check the settings you have for Firefox on your laptop. It's possible that your desktop machine has different settings. Also, have you set it to use a proxy server on either machine?

I tried the same settings as my laptop without success. (Since that failure I decided to delete Firefox and download it again.)
