When I try to open my account at CANADIAN TIRE BANK i get a message telling me that FF has prevented automatic direction to another page unless I click "ALLOW". This does not happen when I open other bank account pages.

Chosen solution

In Firefox 56+ the "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page" setting can no longer be found in Options/Preferences.

You can modify this pref on the about:config page to enable or disable this feature

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
