can not access mozilla firefox internet web site when norton security is on

When I have converted internet access from Internet explorer to mozilla
firefox I was able to access to internet without any problem. On that
time I was using Mc Caffee security system.
Later on ny computer the got virus, I cleaned up my hard drive with the
help of HP people.
This time I used norton disk for security; because I had the disk from
them. Now I at not able to access to mozilla firefox web site.
Accessing is possible only If I turn the security system off. I know
this is not a healthy way of accessing internet.
I had bought and downloaded Mc Caffee thru the Internet. During the
cleaning up of my computer that program was also removed from the hard
disk.When I sent email for the help they didn't give me any respond.
I have "Norton Internet Security" and "Norton Goback" in the computer.
One time I have removed the only "Norton internet security" and
downloaded back. Still I have the same problem.
I will appreciate very much If somebody helps me.

OK, GOTO 10.

Flatten and rebuild. Forget "Norton InSecurity" or "McAfee InSecurity".
Just set up a clean system. Keep the Windows-Firewall activated.

Everything should work now. And: that's it.

And if you want to have a virus scanner, try to get a lean one without
all such stuff, which only is f*cking up your PC.

Sorry, this is the only help I can give, because this is the only way
you should go IMHO.

Thank you for the responding my question.
Now, how can I activate Windows-Firewall while my default web site is
Mozilla Firefox.
Thanks

Windows-Firewall and your browser don't interfere.

Windows-Firewall should be activated by default. You can check this
here:
