I have an XP Home Edition desktop computer. SP3. Cannot use another browser both Internet Explorer 8 and Google Chrome tell me I am not connected to the internet. My ISP is Comcast, my cable provider Broadband Boost fastest speed. I enjoyed going to a 1 2 3 Flash chat room for over 50 until Firefox upgraded to version 33. I can log-in to the website fine but cannot chat in a room. I cannot connect and my computer freezes when I try. I tried installing an earlier version of Firefox and it immediately upgraded to v.33 upon installation. Help!

Hello have you checked if there are any updates regarding Adobe Flash?

I tried to get myself to the chat and everything seems to work perfectly. So I assume that there is something to update.

Some problems occurs when your Internet security program was set to trust the previous version of Firefox, but no longer recognizes your updated version as trusted. Now how to fix the problem: To allow Firefox to connect to the Internet again;

  • Make sure your Internet security software is up-to-date (i.e. you are running the latest version).
  • Remove Firefox from your program's list of trusted or recognized programs. For detailed instructions, see
