Solve : Installation of FireFox?

Answer»

Hi all: I have tried twice to download FIREFOX and each time it appears to have completed the download but I get a msg saying something about not being able to complete because of something to do with a firewall. So...What do I do?
This is the message I get:
The proxy server is refusing connectionsFirefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.
* Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are CORRECT.
* Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is
working.

The first 10 listings are all either Mozilla sites and or mirror sites...
You may want to check your firewall settings also if you have one installed...but it sounds like an external error not something on your end.
Do you RUN a proxy for gaming by the way ? ?
If so log off before trying.
