Too many sites won't load until I click the "allow" bar. I want Firefox to stop doing this so I can access sites without clicking allow every time. How do I do this?

I am using windows xp and I did not have this problem with Internet Explorer.

Can you give me examples of a site that requires you to "allow" access? Could you please take a screen shot and upload it in your reply? It would greatly help me diagnose the problem.

See:

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"

The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
