Frequently when I click to refresh a page or open an new page I get this message: "The proxy server is refusing connections

Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.

   *   Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
   *   Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working."

Tools>Options>Advanced>Configure how firefox connects to the internet Settings> will show that once again, the browser changed itself from auto detect to manual. I change it back to auto-detect and hit save, sometimes it works right away, sometimes I have to do it 3-4x in a row in order for the change to "stick"
