Thanks, now it compile fine and runs.

But it seems unable to resolve names.

?? One can successfully 'ping' the same destinations?

Correction:

telnet www.cnn.com 80 doesn't work also
but
nslookup www.cnn.com works
telnet <ip obtained above> 80 works!

Looks like a nameserver issue, not a Firefox issue.

looking into /etc/rc.conf, /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts:

-are you on DHCP?
-If not, what 'defaultrouter' setting?
-and what is in /etc/resolv.conf?
Then also:

-are you behind a firewall?
-are you setting the browser to use a proxy?
-and what about NAT, routed, named?
HTH
