More details wouldn't hurt. See my profile. One site (name that site) or all sites.

Whenever I click on a link, I always get a message saying "Firefox prevented this page from redirecting to another page"

I then have to click on the 'Allow' button, and it goes to the page I wanted. This is extremely annoying. I can't find a setting in Firefox that will fix it. I never had this problem with previous versions of Firefox, nor do I get that message when using Internet Explorer, so it's not a firewall issue.

That fixed the problem, thanks. I'd looked at that box, but didn't realize that was causing it. Really appreciate your help !
