The connection was reset...
When I am trying to access a certain website, I keep getting:
The connection was reset
The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.
* The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
moments.
* If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
connection.
* If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
-I have asked several friends to access this page (they do not use Mozilla and have the same isp) and they tell me they have no problem.
-My internet is connected and everything works except that site.
-No sites have been blocked.
There would be days when it would work perfectly fine then the next few days, it won't work at all.
Is there a way to fix this?

That message is originating from the server on the other site: Fx won't disconnect.
IE might (re)try just a bit harder then Fx and reopen the closed connection.
It's also possible that your ISP has problems and is not able to keep the connection: it takes too much time and the server on the other side timesout and disconnects.

Same Server, Different Results
I have the same intermittent problem -- "The connection was reset ..." blah, blah. I have seven web sites, all on the same host. Some will always load with Fx; others are intermittent, loading sometimes and returning this error message other times. Three computers in our local net, two don't have Fx, only Mo browser. Three browsers on the one I am at. The others will always open the sites, Mo and IE on mine will always open the sites; only Fx has the problem. What gives with this?!

Connection was reset.
Please help with the following error:

I have verified all firewall and connection settings. This error is received randomly when accessing certain pages. All firefox versions 2.0 and higher generate the above error. However, 1.5.0.9 works great with no problems. I've tried all the about: config fixes with no success. I've really dug into this issue and still have no answers to resolve this problem. IE runs these sites great and firefox bugs out. Whoever recommended that it was an ISP problem, I have a question for you. How then does firefox 1.5.0.9 and .10 work fine but 2.0 and higher throw the error. Something in firefox 2.0 has problems and needs immediate attention. Please it's not a firewall issue. I've seen other IT pros post the same problem and still no answers are generated.

As dickvl said "That message is originating from the server on the other site: Fx won't disconnect. " There have been a lot of people reporting this error message in relation to Yahoo today.

It appears that many others are having the same problem. I have almost two identical systems and one alwasy fails while the other one never fails. The failing system, so far, only fails on a https website and it appears that the certificate is never sent or is denied. I am just guessing on this statement. On the failing system, IE does access every time without any problem.
The certificate is available on the failing system. (Equifax Business)
I don't know of another website that uses the same certificate, if I did, I would try it.

I May of Found the Culprit, Disable TLS
I have been having problems accessing a specific Https site. I get the annoying "Connection was reset" error. This error is generated when using ff 2.0 and higher. However, after reverting back to 1.5.10-11,because 2.0.0-3 was bombing out, users began complaining that the specific https site was having problems. It appeared when they click on a link the page would do nothing and said that it was done loading. So at that time both ff 2.0.0.3 and ff 1.5.11 were dead. So I began looking into the options and found that if you uncheck TLS 1.0 in tools- options-advanced-encryption tab the site loads wonderfully. I just want to know if this is a safe fix and will not open the browser for vulnerability. This fix appears to work in 1.5. 10-11 and 2.0.0-3. I would like to verfiy this fix with firefox and hear back from their support.
