Mozilla is not blocked by my firewall.
There are no internal conflicts I can discover to explain the problem.
Any suggestions?

So I boot my machine up this morning, having let it slumber through the night and upon starting up Firefox discover that, while IE can still acess online resources, Mozilla has suddenly declined to be my browser. And I can't imagine why unless the new update, released Friday, has some critical component that is all fuxored.

Back up your favs and try re-downloading and re-installing?

That was one of the first things I did. Remove the app, reinstall the app.
And still wtf'ing.
This copy of windows is not 'legit' as it were. I didn't see anything about that in the new update and I can't fathom Mozilla giving two shits either way, but if there is a registry issue...

I personally just made the switch to Opera.
I had Opera. Kind of like Firefox, but not as good. Mind, that was years ago, they may well have improved.

It's different than firefox. Now that they no longer have banner advertisements in the program for the free version I'm happy to use it. It also no longer feels bloated and sluggish. It's been loading pages faster than Firefox, has a half baked in-browser torrent client and a half baked download manager with pause and resume. There's built in mouse-gestures somewhere too, but I don't use that on my laptop.
I still like Firefox quite a bit, my customized version has features I love, the Web Devloper toolbar is one of them. I'll have to see if I can find something similar for Opera.

It'll be interesting to see if Microsoft is able to compete with IE 7 when Vista comes out. Supposedly they've introduced tabbed browsing, DL manager, etc.
I'm sticking with firefox for now.

I'm actually happy of things like Firefox and Linux for a simple reason. It's major competition to Microsoft and them and is forcing them to step up their game. Microsoft has always had sloppy coders, and so on and I'm hoping the 'Free Browsers/OS/Etc' things that have been better than retail are making them realize to keep customers they need to fix it.
Here's hoping that my prediction on Vista is wrong and they manage to pull off a relatively clean release.
