Firewall. Many firewalls will not recognize an updated program as the same one you originally gave permission to and block it. But, because the name is already listed, it won't ask. Disabling firewalls usually only disables the user interface, leaving the firewall running in the background. This is not a true test of the problem. Instead, remove the permissions for Firefox in your firewall and reset them when you are prompted to.

See this if you still doubt that it's the firewall. http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic ... 21#2295421

* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
