after updating, firefox (10.0.2 for mac) won't let pages reload or redirect! (weather radar, etc.)

Firefox continually tells me that it has prevented pages from reloading or redirecting, and even though I click ALLOW, it is of no help -- the problem is constant and makes weather pages, radar pages, and forums useless... it also prevents updating news pages.

Thanks -- solved it: (Not instantly, but after Both firefox and my iMac were rebooted).

The annoying notifications stopped instantly, but firefox was still preventing and the updates didn't load (proved by the clock on Wunderground radar). After rebooting, both the notifications (stopped) and updates are working. - Mort (aka wildturkey, morturkey, wildturkeysm)
