| | Can't use Firefox Hi all, I just bought an HP laptop. I installed Firefox using admin privilege. I switched back to regular user but Firebox wouldn't connect to the web. I use IE, and it works. I suspect there must be some setting that only allows IE to connect to the web and not other browsers. Is this true? Is there a fix? Thanks in advance. Ben -- |
