Default Problems with internet access

I'm running Windows 98 using a broadband internet access setup.

I'm using Firefox as my browser. When I attempt to launch it, the cursor
changes to an hourglass for a few seconds, then goes back to the arrow
cursor, and it doesn't launch. But, if I go to the Task Manager, it is shown
as running.
When I click on it in the task manager and select Shut Down, the
"Application Not Responding, End Now" window is displayed.

But, that same computer is running AOL Instant Messanger and Yahoo Instant
Messanger, and when I launch those, they work fine. But when trying to launch
a browser, it doesn't work.

I've reloaded Firefox, but no changes. I had a similar problem with Internet
Explorer when I got the broadband setup, so I started using Firefox instead.

Any suggestions?
