Using Firefox

I downloaded Firefox but when i open it i get a message saying that it is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections...how do i fix this?

Because Edit is not the proper place for preferences. This is a quirk from Netscape/Unix people (and probably Macs too, I don't know). Why the fuck would Preferences go in Edit? Just because "Edit Preferences Lol" sounds straightforward? Edit is for TEXT EDITION, i.e. copypasta, undo, search, replace, etc., not preferences.

This is not to say Tools is great for it, although it's certainly better than Edit. I would place it in File, although it's not perfect either.
