After updating to 6.0.1, sites just show "connecting" and nothing happens. Using Spyware Doctor w/ AV, but can't seem to find how to get my security software to re-allow Firefox access to the internet, if that is the problem.

Solved the problem. Appears there were old fragments of my previous security software. Once removed using Trend Micro's removal tool, my Spyware Doctor w/ AV worked better and 6.0.1 was allowed access to the internet.
