Does the msg "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page" mean I have a worm that wants to redirect?

The given Firefox message appears in a bar a the top of some of my saved sites, most disturbingly from my secure financial sites, when they are first called up on my PC screen. Wat should I do about this, if if it signifies nothing worrisome, why does Firefox send this message?

You get this warning when a website wants to send you to a different website. This is an Accessibility feature. You can disable it in Options > Advanced >Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page
