Unable to connect Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.google.co.uk. The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments. ...
If it's really saying "Firefox can't connect to..." then it sounds like you still have Firefox there? - Surely IE wouldn't say that, would it? or is Windows just still associating URLs with Firefox? ? Odd, that....!
I've done that ex0 and it still gives me the same message.
CVx3 - I do still have Firefox as I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it 3 times. As for the rest of what you said - I have no idea, you may as well have just said something in Uzbekistanian
I shall put up with it until mate is off nights and can fix it or I find someone else who can come and do it

None whatsoever with Firefox, just keep getting the above page. IE is fine, I just hate it I even removed IE to see if it would work that way but same result, so had to reinstall it.
I know it's going to be something even more simple than I

On the above link, forgot to stress, don't just click on it... select it and copy and paste it into IE's address box...
Yeah, you don't need to copy paste into the bar anymore dude. Not 1999.
Wench, when you go into firefox hit file at the top, is work offline checked? If so uncheck it, that should fix the problem.
If it doesn't, click tools and then options, choose advanced at the top and then network. Click 'settings' on the top option (choose how firefox connects to the internet). Do you have proxies enabled? Is it set to use system settings?
Yes she does need to copy and paste it, because if she just clicks on it, that will invoke Firefox (and Firefox isn't working...) 2011 or not... Oh and and don't call me "dude".

She said that firefox isn't her default browser, she had to install IE which would override firefox. Dude.
I've clicked it and copy/pasted it and followed the instructions to no avail.
I give up. I've tried everything. Either I'm more of a total spaz than I thought or it's fooked and I'll have to stay with IE. Either way, I'm fed up of it now. Fooking hate computers!!

If that were really so, then how come, before, when she clicked on a link that someone posted, she got FIREFOX ??????? WELL???
That is why I said what I said - that, plus Wench indicated she admits not being very computer-savvy.
Why the heck don't you stay on topic and confine yourself to trying to assist the OP instead of having a go at anyone else who tries to help?
And I have told you once, and I will not tell you again: DO NOT CALL ME "DUDE". That you did so after being told not to, I take is clearly a personal insult.
