New Firefox 8 opens in 'about:home' page and whenever I enter any website I get into Google other than Google, I get a 404-Not Found error. Have tried all suggestions found in help so far with no fix.
Entering any website, such as www.facebook.com or www.yahoo.com, for example, directly onto the address bar reads a 404 error. Entering them onto the Google entry bar, I get a Google page that looks more like Ask.com before getting a 404 error when clicking onto it.

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 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.

Thanks for your reply cor-el. It wwasn't the cause of my problem, but it did help me figure out were I needed to look for the problem.
I don't use a proxy and expected the new version of Firefox would be default to No Proxy. It was pre-set to 'Use System Prozy Settings' on the Connection Settings page.
Thanks again.
