Okay, what am I doing wrong:
Installation wizard gets so far, then gives me this message:
FIREFOX IS CONFIGURED TO USE A PROXY SERVER THAT IS REFUSING CONNECTIONS
I've checked the LAN settings, and they are correct.
I've checked the protocol settings, and they are correct.
I even thought Windows firewall was blocked installation, to I added Firefox as an exception.
I use Verizon DSL and that's fine too.
I still get the error message.
Actually, I was planning to install Google Chrome, but noted they still have a few bugs so I'm holding off on that. But in the meantime, I've still been using IE only because I've had to do several restores due to virus attacks and I just left it.
Now I'm ready to install Firefox, and can't do it.
WTF?
