The browser worked fine 2 days ago. However, started yesterday, it stopped working for accessing to facebook, youtube and google doc. The connection was very slow and a problem loading page showed. This problem only occurs at home, it worked perfectly fine at school. I wonder why?

Do you see any error messages?

What security software do you have?

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) to see if that helps.

It is possible that your firewall or other security software blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
