Almost every time after I do a search and click on the links that have come up I get a new tab that says "Server not found". I've already checked my proxy setting and they match I.E. and I don't have this issue in it. Sometime if I just hit refresh several times the page it's taken me to will work some times it doesn't. I even got this error when when I went to the help button at the top of the screen and clicked on "Firefox Help"

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
