Can't install addons

When I try to install an addon, the progress bar runs for a bit and then I'm told it can't be done due to a connection failure with addons.mozilla.org.

I've just uninstalled Orbit Downloader, because it's integration with FF was unforgivably bad and it may have screwed up my configs. Not sure if that's the problem, but it seems to be worth mentioning.
