My Firefox will not let me access my bookmarks,says trouble loading page. I can access other web sites .?

As I stated anything bookmarked I can not pull up. If I type it in the search window I get an error message that says "The connection was reset". I can not access any other web site at all. My Network connection says it's enabled and firewalled also. Can anyone help me out here? Just started this yesterday and I tried for three hours with no luck and called my DSL provider and we got it to work although he did not know what was done to make it work.

Update:

I did get back on till this morning and now all I can bet is Firefox,nothing else.

    TO NARROW THIS PROBLEM DOWN WOULD DEFINITELY TAKE SOME TIME. IT COULD BE YOU FIREWALL IS TO HIGH(VERIZON SERVERS HAVE PROBLEMS AND CAN NOT GIVE YOU THE SPEED REQUIRED FOR YOUR INTERNET TO FUNCTION PROPERLY). IT COULD BE A VIRUS, BUT IT SOUNDS LIKE IT WAS SOMETHING GOING ON WITH YOUR DSL PROVIDER. MAYBE A CONNECTION ISSUE, OR A SERVER ISSUE. GLAD YOU GOT BACK ON THOUGH!
