How the following message can not be enough ?

Unable to connect

Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.

    *   The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a 
few
          moments.

    *   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.
