Mozilla and Gmail
I can't access my gmail account using Firefox. It tells me connection was refused when attempting to contact google.com. ??? I have Windows 98, IE 6 SP1, Mozilla Firefox and Norton Internet Security. I think it might be the Norton firewall but I've done everything I can think of to do. I can get into my gmail using IE but I'd rather not if I didn't have to. Any help would be appreciated. Modo

The Greasemonkey extension embeds javascript into pages to do various interesting things. One of the scripts isn't playing nice with Gmail right now, and locks people out in a few cases. |

I know gmail was down a good part of the day saturday and I had a hard time getting firefox to give me the error message, it just timed out. When I attempted using IE just as a test, I finally saw the error message that there were problems with the gmail server.
I use firefox exclusivley and never have a problem with gmail.

Thanks TFP'rs: When I disable Norton Internet Security I can use G-Mail with Firefox. Still haven't figured out why yet. I don't keep any cookies, temporary internet files, history, download history etc.

glad to see I am not the only one having issues with sites connecting while using FF. That is odd indeed, but as stated above usually a refresh and I am right in the house.
winder if it coule be some sort of extension that has been installed, as I have found and installed quite an enjoyable bunch of these little buggers.

I stopped the connection errors by doing this:
accessibility.typeheadfind.timeout changed it to 30000 I haven't gotten any more connection errors as of yet.

Norton Internet Security does some weird things, and in some cases makes websites not work. My mother visists a cairn-terrier forum regularly and will only work by disabling Norton Internet Security.
