I dowloaded the most recent update (atually I didn't have a choice, it just came) and when it installed I could no longer access the net- it said it was trying to connect with a proxy server. Problem is I don't use one.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

The last update installed

Have you checked the Firefox connection settings?
