As page is loading a drop down box appears letting me know that it stopped page from being redirected. My choice is "allow" or "X". When I "allow", the drop box closes and I'm still on the same page. I minimize page to see if there is a pop-up behind and nothing is there. When I have multiple tabs open, sometimes there is a mini freeze as a page refreshes and the drop down box appears that I did not "allow". Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

See:

  • Firefox > Options/Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"

The setting in "Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
