Firefox 6.02, Fedora 15 "browser offline"

[Frank Murphy]

Back to getting "browser offline"
when network is fine.
Other browsers work.

tried "about:config - browser.offline toggled the value to false.
Still starts offline.

They're looking for a permanent solution, to stop Firefox always being
in off-line mode, so they don't have to keep on putting it on-line.
