Why am I getting "This page has moved. Click here for new location." messages?

Please continue here: [/questions/975289]

I'm currently running v24 in Windows 7 Pro x64.

Since one of this year's updates (21? 22? 23?), several web sites that I've been visiting weekly or monthly (to pay bills, etc.) for years no longer work smoothly. Clicking on links/buttons that execute actions (e.g., "Submit", "Next", etc.) don't go directly to the desired page. Instead I get a page with a text message that's something like "This page has moved. Click here for new location." (And no, they're not the "redirecting in 10 seconds" kind of messages.) I can still get to where I need to go by clicking that second link, but all those extra clicks in the past 2-3 months are getting on my nerves.

Needless to say, this is really annoying. Since I've not added any new add-ons in many moons, my suspicion is that Mozilla changed a default setting somewhere in a recent update (from "Off" to "On" or "True" to "False" or vice versa). Anyone have some insight into how I can eliminate this annoyance?

I should add that I'm running NoScript--since it updates frequently, I suppose that I could have also introduced this problem.
