That is because your homepage URL specified to firefox is invalid, you can change your homepage from Firefox > options > General Tab

you will see a input field with name "home_page"

What is the homepage URL displayed in Tools > Options > General?

Copy and paste the URL of your desired homepage in the Homepage text area.

As long as your computer can connect to the internet successfully, you should be able to browse the internet using Firefox.
