Through IE & Opera I can serf the internet, but when opening FF3 it writes some kind of error that it can't connect to the website... Already reinstalled, cleaned regs with ccleaner, gave a permition in Brandmauser... nothing...
Looking forward for your help in solving this problem

utopia.lvI don't think this is the correct place to look for help if you can not get Firefox to connect to the internet.
Here's the link to Firefox support forum: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38

xDimensionCan't be the firewall?

DanId agree with the firewall comment, although Are you running it in offline mode? That can be another reason.

utopia.lvHere are my guesses:

1) Firefox is set to use Proxy server. To verify and disable: Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Settings -> (set to) No proxy

2) DNS does not resolve in Firefox. Try opening the following link, if it opens then there is DNS problem:
http://74.125.43.103/

3) Firefox connections blocked in Firewall software. Completely exit firewall software and see if Firefox can connect to internet. Don't forget to start Firewall again afterward. If it worked, look at Firewall settings and rules and make sure Firefox is allowed to connect to internet.

SumixProblem solved :) It wasn't proxy / DNS, so I deside to check firewall and found out that my antivirus doesn't work (Nornot Antivirus). I just couldn't start it, so... deinstallation...) and installed another one antivirus and after rebooting my system... firefox IS ALIVE ! :)
Thanks everybody for suggestions, now I would click more, than 20000 pages a day by my hand)
