after I uninstalled Kaspersky Internet Security webpages stopped loading. I'm getting Unable to connect message. This issue affected 3 out of 4 browsers that I use. All browsers work in safe mode, but Safari is the only one that works in normal mode. IE Chrome, and Firefox will not work. I thought I need to make a fresh install of the browser to work. First I've tried to reset Firefox to to default settings - this didn't solve issue. Then I've cleaned all attributes via ccleaner: http://screencast.com/t/pOpgoO8c4Olf , then uninstalled FF, then downloaded and installed fresh copy. This didn't solve the issue either. So question: how do I install a truly fresh copy of the browser?

i don't have any internet security, firewall is disabled. There was nothing suspicious in firefox settings. Besides running ccleaner and clearing all firefox attributes, I also searched and deleted every mention of "firefox" from registry before installing fresh copy. It didn't help - I still cannot access any websites.
