firefox error

Carl | Last updated: Jan 07, 2022 04:16AM UTC

I have followed the instructions letter by letter. inserted the certificate so fire fox would trust it. I have gone to burger menu/preferences/network/settings/ manually configure proxy with my loop back of 127.0.0.1 on port 8080 and when i save the settings. I then try to access a website and it says my proxy configurations are The proxy server is refusing connections "Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections. Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct. Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working." I dont get it. Do i have to change my preferences every time I want to use burp? because burp works when I open it and change the firefox settings. I have set up burp a few times now. I have even had the ext foxy-proxy which was sweet. But now all i want to do is just be able to surf the internet and use burp when it is open and I have intercept on etc. Please help me
