Apparently there is no way to edit my original post?

My code is missing a bracket; it should say:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

driver.get("http://google.com");

I also tried with Selenium version 2.42.1 and 2 (latest) with same results.

Selenium 2.42 requires httpclient-4.3, please remove older httpclient
versions from the classpath

The attached maven project works as expected for me, you can try it to
retest the issue.

Nothing in my project changed, but I cannot reproduce it today. :(

I get the same error using 'org.seleniumhq.selenium:selenium-java:2.42.3'.
when I switched to 2.42.2 I was able to launch chrome. I'm using gradle and
testng.

Just check whether you have two same jar with different version. I got the
same error then I figured I have duplicate jars with different version.
After removing those duplicate jars I am able to launch the browser.
