Firefox can't establish a connection to the server

* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.

* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

I thank you for the help

did you try another browser to see if it is a browser issue or something else? If not please do so. It will eliminate some possibilities.

however, I personally have noticed some issues with yahoo lately myself. In fact some yahoo groups are unavailable at this very moment.

How did I know you would ask that lol and why didn't I do that to start with lol lol

I tried IE and it seems fine. Firefox seems fine too today, (watch it start back up)

I like firefox with Vista thats why I prefer it.

Thanks for your help!
