 The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
   moments.
 If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
   connection.
 If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
   that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

Remove Firefox from the Firewall menu and then let it redetect it. See this article: Configure firewalls so that Firefox can access the Internet

If the problem persists, do the following please.

  1. Click the orange Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Advanced.

  2. Click the Network tab and then click the Settings button.

  3. Checkmark the option called "No Proxy" and then click OK/OK.
