no ::) , he meant Firefox 6 (google is your friend guys)

 @the OP: the blocking has nothing to do with FF6 +  Avast, it's a purely Avast issue (when it happens), attempt a repair or a re-install of Avast +  get rid of any other security sofwtare that you may have.

    hi  i  un-installed avast then re-installed it  still have the same problem  heres  the firefox  version

      http://img231.imageshack.us/img231/4623/snap20110426095617001.png    hers the pop-up box that explains the problem


      http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/8994/snap20110426101008001.png       the only way to use firefox is to dis-able the avast sheilds  when the avast sheilds are off firefox loads and works like it should do you have anymore ideas  as id hate to use a different anti-virus i  tried avira after un-installing  avast and firefox works works perfect  but i dont like avira    thanks
