This is a nasty bug, since Firefox just fails without any error message after upgrading to version 22. I was affected myself and it took a while to diagnose. One thing puzzles me: why does google.com still work when a broken manual proxy is configured?

To do this, you will need to select "Manual", delete the settings, click OK and then re-open the dialog to set it back to "System" again Note, we're going to respin Firefox 22 with the patch from https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=817533 , even if upstream aren't **** I just received the upgrade to FF22 through the update-center. After restarting firefox, I wasn't able to connect to any single web-page. Checking the 'about:config' network settings, I found out that something had changed the proxy-settings and everything was directed to '134.246...' (don't remember the whole number). After resetting all proxy values, firefox worked again as usual.
