Can you attach a screenshot?

  • Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot
  • Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum size of 1 MB

You can check the connection settings.

If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.

See "Firefox connection settings":


Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.

Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. All these programs have free versions.

Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

You can also do a check for a rootkit infection with TDSSKiller.

Sounds like a content blocker - how about that Stop-it extension? https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stop-it/

Disable it and see if those messages stop.

I'm surprised that you have passed over the-edmeister's suggestion. It seems a very likely place to start. Good extensions can suffer from corruption and conflicts.
