This morning I have the same problem: when trying to access yahoo mail, I get this message: "Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. This problem can sometime be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

I found a solution here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/944236

Now would you or anyone know how this can be fixed with out having to restart firefox in safe every time just to access yahoo mail?

If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.

Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)
