On a Sports website (Espncricinfo.com) the website is continually being reloaded to allow the new commentary to be shown. Instead of this happening automatically, there is a notice bar at the top of the page which states that 'Firefox has prevented this page from automatically reloading.'

Go to Tools > Options menu. In the Options window, select Advanced and then select the General tab.
Under Accessibility, make sure that there is no tick mark against Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page option. Click OK.
