Solution:

Breezy isn't supported anymore (the folders have been removed from that server).

Try to run

"sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"

The problem is Breezy is very, very old (in development terms)...

You will have to upgrade from Breezy to Dapper to Feisty to Hardy
-or-
you could download the Hardy Heron installation cd and do a clean install.

But if downloading a huge amount of files is no problem for you then do the following:

edit the file /etc/apt/sources.list (as root)
replace all instances of "breezy" with "dapper"

run the command
"sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"

Are we speaking about the same machine or another one? If it's the same machine that you're upgrading from breezy to dapper then upgrade to feisty (and preferably to Hardy)

It will take you a whole day - depending on your computer speed and internet connection.

Once dapper is completely installed and upgraded make sure to check the
System->Administration->Software Sources and make sure that all software repositories are checked (universe, multiverse, sources) and that the update-manager is set to look for new distrobutions. Then run the update-manager and have it check for the latest release.

It might be that it finds Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron right away or then you have to go through Feisty->Gutsy->Hardy.

You should't need to edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file again.

Time wise it may be better to save your home folder and to a clean install of Handy, then copy your home folder back. Than going from update to update to update ect.

You lost your firefox? What were you doing before that? Have you decided to download the Hardy CD? If you want you can try to launch the browser from a terminal window (in case it's just the shortcut that has been lost..)

If firefox is indeed gone then you may want to try if the epiphany browser is installed.

Just type epiphany in the terminal to launch it.
