I upgraded to Firefox 3.5 about 5 months ago. Before, it worked fine.... after the upgrade, I got this screen:


Can anyone help me?

Try uninstalling it then re-installing it. That usually works for me when that happens.

Well i just looked at your tray on the bottom right. Where there are to small monitor icons together (you connectivity) there should also be a small planet earth to show that you are connected to the internet. Are you sure you are checking you are properly connected before you open firefox? Did any of your security settings reset that would interfere with you router?

Uh, you're not connected to the Internet in that screenshot. o.o See the icon showing two computers in your system tray? If there's no picture of the Earth in the same icon then you're not connected to the Internet.

uninstall firefox, run a registry cleaner, download and install the final FF 3.5 release, that should solve your problem.

Also @ GavZ and Get Innocuous! yesterday my vista laptop said I wasn't connected to a network/internet yet I could browse just fine, explanations? there is none because vista messes with your mind

You may have not been on the internet and just browsing pages that were cached. Just sayin'.

As for a "registry cleaner," use CCleaner. There are others out there that work just as well, but Google will probably lead you to something malicious instead of something helpful in this case.

It seems Vista, once again, decides to throw the normal rules out the window.

My guess would have been what GavZ said.
Maybe check your connection.

I can only actually surf the interwebs when earth is in between the two monitors. :/

In Vista, if you don't see the connected icon in the tray, there IS NO CONNECTION to the internet present.

false, I've used Vista a few times and the world didn't appear, yet I could browse the internet and talk online. I must be some super l337 hax0r if there has to be a world to use the internet

Mozilla.com could have been down. Also, try running Firefox in Safe Mode, without plugins.
