This has started popping up each time I open the firefox app on my mac. I've tried doing a fresh install and approving the app in my firewall. How can I make this go away? I'll need specific instructions - I'm fairly new to the mac.

Thanks in advance.

hello flur, this should be gone in firefox 37 which is going to be released in 2 days. you could also try using firefox beta for the moment: https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/beta/
