Default Firefox update

So the new firefox update has installed and now it doesn't load any pages. IE seems fine so it's not a connection problem. Anyone else had this issue? I'm too hungover to fix it myself.

Funnily enough I just updated to 2.0 this morning and it went like a dream, sorry. Downloaded, installed and up and running inside three minutes, including extensions (Fasterfox and Foxytunes).
Maybe it's Karma. What have you done?

hmmm. The 1.5 auto update fucked up and I downloaded 2.0 and it doesn't work either. I thought I was quite good last night, don't remember doing anything that would come back and bite me with karma.

Yeah I've tried that. I'll have a proper look at it tomorrow. Really can't be arsed fixing it just now. It's strange that it's just stopped working after the update though.

I never had problems with v2.0 of Firefox either although it is pretty buggy still.

If I were you Chris I'd just un-install Firefox, delete the Firefox directory and start again with a fresh v2.0 install.

By update, do you mean the 1.5.0.8 update? If so, it's working fine here.
