Vista blocked my Firefox, Opera and Skype
Hi all

My problem is that I have updated these three programs to higher version and after finishing update I tried to run them. But browsers show me "connection error". They told me I'm not connected to internet, but IE connect me to internet.

I uninstalled all of them, remove any notice from registry, delete all folders connected with Firefox/Opera/Skype and reboot computer. After rebooting, I installed them back, but nothing happened (even if I installed older versions). That error is still there. I don't want to reinstall my system.

I update my Vista. Install all updates, even optional and recomended but nothing happend. What to do? Can Firefox/Oper/Skype blocked itself?

I try to install linux iceweasel but then I also got message about wrong connection.

Can anyone help me? My system is Vista with all available updates?
