'Allow' message on my email account

When I open my Fastmail account page a message appears to say 'Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page' I have to then click on the ALLOW button to get to the log-in page. The other person who has an account on this PC, uses Firefox and the same email provider goes straight to the log in page. Why do I have this additional step?

Thank you for any advice.
