A site I MUST USE is always blocked by "blocked redirection" I must turn it OFF.

When I try to log in to my BANKING site, Firefox always blocks the re-direction after my credentials are entered.

Even after clicking "ALLOW" I end up on a page from the SITE which indicates there is a problem.

Nothing I do will allow me onto the site from FIREFOX.

As soon as FIREFOX blocks the redirection, the security on the site itself then blocks access.

I CAN access it using Explorer.

I am using 57.0.2 (64bit)

I need to keep Firefox from blocking any part of that site.

In Firefox 56+ the "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page" setting can no longer be found in Options/Preferences.

You can modify this pref on the about:config page to enable or disable this feature

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.


The "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page" warning is meant as an accessibility feature so people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and isn't meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
