Tried to access Gmail via Firefox - 404. That’s an error. The requested URL /intl/en-GB/mail/help/about.html was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

Tried to access Gmail via Firefox. Got this message "404. That’s an error. The requested URL /intl/en-GB/mail/help/about.html was not found on this server. That’s all we know." i was able to access Gmail via Internet Explorer as well as my Android phone. Don;t know why I can't access it via Firefox as I prefer using the Firefox browser. Please help. Thanks.
