I re-installed Firefox. Every time I start Firefox, I get a long message in a window called “Browser console”: alert() is not supported in background windows; please use console.log instead. There was an error configuring Browsing protection. This may be due to your proxy configuration. Please run the command "/usr/local/f-secure/bin/proxy-localhost-bypass" in Terminal or ensure that your system is configured to bypass proxy for host 'localhost'.

Can somebody explain what this "bypass proxy for host 'localhost" means for my iMac?. (any security risks?).

That are problems with the "Browsing protection by F-Secure 1.0.1021" that shows in the System Details list. All entriies that show 'fsbp' in the screenshot are likely related to this extension. You will have to contact F-Secure for support.
