Why is it, ... every time!!! Firefox updates, it totally screws u[p my internet connection, and Adobe Flash also always updated the same time as Firefox updates and then Firefox can no longer connect to the internet!!! 

 I have to uninstall Firefox, Adobe Flash, revert back to Internet Explorer and restore Windows 7 back to original settings, i.e. uninstall MS Framework, updates , and start all over!  What the hell is wrong with thi9s crappy browser?

hello, such issues are often caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions. please remove all program rules for firefox from your firewall and let it detect the new version of the browser again.
