F.fox won't redirect sometimes

more options

Repeatedly Fire fox puts up a bar saying, " Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page" Then it has a box to click that says ALLOW. Some times it will redirect sometimes I get the "Firefox prevented Etc. Etc...bar over and over. How can I disable this automatic prevention. Not just disable the warning bar, but disable the function.

Thank you in advance.
