As above, I have also tried downloading a later version, also tried downloading Google Chrome, none work. I have tried using my laptop at several different wifi connections in USA and Firefox does not work on any. So it is not a wifi set up problem in our home in USA. I am running X.P and I.E 6. When I downloaded I.E 8 that would not work either, so I had to re set the laptop back to a date a week ago. Unable to access certain bank sites with I.E 6, that is why I use Firefox. Any suggestions appreciated. This is the message I get

"Unable to connect Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at webmail.apscontrol.com. The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few 

   moments.
 If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
   connection.
 If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
