I followed Andrea's interface cleaning. I just deleted all the contents
of interface, but firefox still won't work. Then I remembered that one
of my friends helped me set up a firewall. The content of that file is:

#!/bin/sh
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD DROP
iptables -P INPUT DROP
iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT

I deleted that file.

Then since now the interfaces are not there I had to put in the
following commands:

sudo ifconfig lo localhost
sudo route add localhost dev lo

I am typing this message using firefox three. I just have to set up the
lo interface. Getting there. However if someone could help me edit the
firewall file, I would appreciate that.
