So I can connect to the internet, but firefox won't load any pages. I've double checked, since I'm doing fine on the mac. Any ideas why it can't connect?
use chrome...

i recently switched and never looked back

but i would try reinstalling it... the usual stuff. clear cache, check firewall stuff, spywares etc.

I switched bc it wasn't loading or if it did it took 10 seconds to even start loading a page.  IE worked.. but IE sucks and I tried everything anyone on the interwebs said to no avail, so i went with chrome. 
have you made sure your DNS servers are up and that you can connect to them?

I'm assuming you're saying to check if I'm really connected to the internet, and yes, I am. I was browsing on my mac while this couldn't load anything.
did you try reinstalling? it's dumb i know but once in a while shit has hit the fan and that was the only way to fix it for me :\

your*
sorry!
restart your computer. I used to have the same problem on Ubuntu. If it's only just started happening then use System Restart IMMEDIATELY before you forgot when it started happening.
Are you still experiencing this problem?

not really. Happens occasionally.
Zone Alarm?
So is firefox failing to load webpages, while other services such as IRC, MSN/AOL, Email(real, not webbased), etc. continue to function?
Or does everything stop?

This is unclear in your posts.

It will fail to load webpages for about a straight 15 minutes or half hour.

Meh. Firefox, when it works, is best for me.
