OK, thanks all. I just tried uninstalling and then reinstalling ver 25. I did not reload my previous data using Titanium Backup. When I tried this with loading data from TB I couldn't download Add ons. Trouble is I now have to manually add all the Add ons I had (Phony, Network Preferences, Self destructing cookies, ABP, and Quit now plus Google, Twitter and Wikipedia search engines)!!

Maybe problem was Network Preferences as this is Experimental (but it did work before). How to use a proxy now?
