Hi, I opened Firefox yesterday and it did an autmatic update (to version 28.0 I think) and afterwards would not load any websites. Internet Explorer works fine and I've tried all proxy adjustments and reinstall/resets. I've also made sure firefox was on the accpetion list for both Windows Firewall and BitDefender (my current security program). Please help

Hello,

I'm sorry to hear about your troubles, please check out this article.

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.

Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
