Each time I request Firefox to start I get a message requesting permission for Firefox to update the hard drive. This laptop is the only one that requests this, any of my other computers start Firefox without the request.

Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.
Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected.
You also need to check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.
