What does it mean when I receive this message in Firefox: embed-run-active-content.js
When a new screen on a website I am visiting loads, I see the message "requires embed-run-active-content.js" is this a legitimate software message or is this a sign of malware? I cannot find anything referring to that particular phrase.

If you see this happening on all sites, I would be suspicious. If it's just one site, then I would be less concerned. Could you give the URL of page that generates this message?
Do you have any content blocking extensions installed?
