Firefox Timed Out

in Firewall

Hello, I've got a weird problem, I'm using Bitdefender Internet Security for 7-8 months with no issues so far.


But two days ago I can't use firefox (v. 24.0), whenever I try to connect to the internet I get a connection timed out error.


All other browsers, (IE10, Chrome 30) connect without problems.


The problem is by-passed when I disable the BT Firewall.


I've tried contacting you through the program's "help & support" but I haven't receieved an answer.

    Perhaps you might modified some settings on the Firewall. If this has been working for you before, another option would be to set the settings back to default. smile2.png


    I am having the same problems after running some windows security updates. Both explorer and Firefox refuse to connect to anything (even local addresses) unless I turn the bitdefender firewall off. I have even reset to defaults on the firewall with no change. I may try re-installing bitdefender this weekend to see if that changes anything.
