When I click a link "gout.com" at the top of a Google page I get "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.googleadervices.com". Do I have to dump Firefox and go back to the evil IE. Google is broken. Do I just have to suffer with this painful gout. Is that Google's gift?

Hello John,

this problem could probably be caused by a Firefox extension.

To make sure that no extension is causing the problems, start Firefox in Safe Mode by following the instructions in the Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode article.
