Under my Windows 8.1, Firefox 32.0.1 refuses to access the internet, but Firefox 32.0 accesses the internet correctly.

While Firefox 32.0.1 was installed in my computer, my Internet Explorer refused to access the internet, but my FTP reader/writer accessed the internet correctly.

anthony, such issues are usually caused by a firewall/security software which doesn't recognize & therefore blocks new firefox versions: Fix problems connecting to websites after updating Firefox
