Word could not communicate with Zotero. Please ensure Firefox is running and try again.
Hi all,
I'm having some trouble with the MS Word plugin, getting the error message: "Word could not communicate with Zotero. Please ensure Firefox is running and try again."
I noticed that some other people have had the issue in the forums here, but none of those discussions seem to help. I checked the plugin troubleshooting page too, and am not running Firefox in no-remote mode. Also, the "Report Errors" option in Zotero is grayed out.
I'm using Word 2007 on a XP machine with Zotero 2.0rc5 and WinWord Integration 3.0a3.
Any ideas?

This is an old discussion that has not been active in a long time. Instead of commenting here, you should start a new discussion. If you think the content of this discussion is still relevant, you can link to it from your new discussion.
I'm running Avast! antivirus (version 4.8) and ZoneAlarm (version 9.1.007.002).
I tried disabling both Avast! and ZoneAlarm. Still no luck. I reinstalled the WinWord plug-in. Same thing: "Word could not communicate with Zotero. Please ensure Firefox is running and try again."
Any other thoughts?
Post there if you have anything to add.
