Firefox ribbon prompts to 'Allow', but site goes back to homepage and doesn't let me continue.
On a credit union website I enter username and password, after which a Firefox ribbon appears toward the top of the page and asks if I want to 'ALLOW'. I choose ALLOW, but am kicked back to the home page of the credit union site.

Thank you!
thank you. when I tried to do a screenshot, the "Allow" message vanished too quickly, HOWEVER, without even hitting "allow" (which was a redirect question) the password was allowed and a new screen came up wanting to verify my identity on my computer by sending me a text message. VIOLA, I can get into the website! Internet Explorer lets me in without an "Allow" message, but still sends a text message to verify I am who I am. Mission Accomplished, and thank you. I was just hoping for how to modify Firefox's security settings to allow the website redirection.
