Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.pcworld.com. 

   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
   If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
   If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

this is the only site I have a problem with. If I use "open link in IE Tab" site loads.

Try disabling the HTTPS-Everywhere extension, or make an exception for this site if possible. See: You block a computer website that Chrome and IE don't.

FYI, this extension also is associated with crashes for some users.

To review, configure, disable and remove extensions, try the Add-ons page. Either:

  • Ctrl+Shift+a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons

In the left column, click Extensions.

Disabling PC World in HTTPS-Everywhere solved the problem. Thanks for the help!
