When clicking on my firefox icon on my wifes Windows Vista computer, I get an "Unable to connect" error. More specifically "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at en-us.start3.mozilla.com". The network is working because internet explorer works fine. This just started this morning and continues all day.
