Ïk want to use SABnzb
I sometimes use SABnzb to download. after the last update of FF I get a message that FF blocked this because of a wrong adress. I can't find a possibility to unlock this. Why is FF intervening in my personal business? Please a solution in short terms.

Does the address contain an unusual port number, after a colon, such as:
You can create a preference using about:config and allow the port number which Firefox is blocking. Please see:
http://www.mozbrowser.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?p=59811
In English:
(0) Select and copy the following preference name
network.security.ports.banned.override
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste ports and pause while the list is filtered
If the above-listed preference exists:
(3) Double-click it and add a comma to the end of the list followed by the port number you need to allow. No spaces. Then click OK.
If the above-listed preference does not exist:
(4) right-click anywhere on the page and choose New > String
(5) In the preference name dialog, paste the name you coped and click OK
(6) In the preference value dialog, type in the port number you need to allow, then click OK.

Unfortunately, I do not understand which error you are getting.
Is this a message on a bar with an Allow button, or a full page error, or an error on the download list?
Could you possibly post a screen shot, or copy/paste what you see?
You ask me for a screen-shot, so I posted it here. the retry button (opnieuw proberen) does nothing at all.
The translation is " this adress has restricted acces"
