Server not found




Firefox can't find the server at by122w.bay122.mail.live.com. 

   *   Check the address for typing errors such as
         ww.example.com instead of
         www.example.com

   *   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.

What happens if you try accessing https://login.live.com

It is always worth trying clearing your cache and cookies if connectivity problems arise. Also you are according to the system info using Firefox 3.5.18 that is not secure, and may be part of your problem if you try to access secure https sites.

I would strongly advise you upgrade to at least firefox 3.6 (that is still supported at the present) or if you do not have strong reasons for using an old version upgrade to the current version Firefox 6.

As suggested in the message you pasted, security software and its settings may need to be reviewed.
