Isisombululo esikhethiwe

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.

This computer works fine with IE. All other computers also work. I had no problem with Firefox until this upgrade. Now it's unusable.
