Latest version of Firefox (version 32) can't access web sites. Using Windows 8.1 Compatibility problems?
Firefox automatically updates to the latest version which is now version 32. I get the following error message: "Firefox can't find the server at us.data.toolbar.yahoo.com" Preceded by "Sever Not Found" This happens on any web site I try to access. Reloading version 31 Firefox works fine, but then it will update itself again.
Windows 8.1 is my operating system.

The latest Release is Firefox 31.0 as the only way you would get updated to the current Beta build which is Firefox 32.0b2 (b2 = Beta 2 as there can be say six to twelve Betas) build is if you were on the Beta channel due to having installed a Beta build and continued using it since. If the Firefox 31.0 you installed is updating to 32.0b2 then the 31.0 you installed was a Beta build (make sure the file name did not have say 31.0b# as there were nine Betas) and not the Firefox 31.0 Release say from mozilla.org or https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/
The typical reason for a new version (on Windows) not being able to connect after a new major version Firefox update or install is usually due to a software Firewall blocking the new .exe yet it may stll have the previous version allowed.
