Firefox not connecting to all Websites

FC10/KDE i386

FireFox has trouble of connecting to websites , rpmfusion.org, lxer.com, linuxtoday.com, "Firefox can't find the Server at www.rpmfusion.org" , and the same with the other two Websites.

It can connect to fox.com, redhat.com, and yahoo.com without any problems.

This is a FIrefox problem I'm having on two computers, a eeePC laptop and a PC box.

I can't believe I'm the only one having this problem.

I installed Opera on both computers and I'm not having any problems of finding any websites

You're probably not, depending on what version of FF you're using. I had similar issues with 3.0, and have seen several reports of the same with 2.x.x.x. 3.0.3 and 3.0.4, however, have performed flawlessly.

I wished I could say that, 3.0.4 is the one that is giving me problems on two computers.
Does anyone know why when you try to do a download in Opera it runs the xine, or video player plugin ??

Got any extensions under Firefox. I feel one of them may be causing your problem. Disable them all and see if Firefox works.
