Sometimes Firefox profiles can become corrupt. Could you please try this
with a new profile and see if the problem still exists? You do not need
to delete your old profile to test.

You can start the profile manager with the following command:
firefox -ProfileManager

Firefox wont connect, Opera does as does Chromium and Update manager
