What page/s are open in Firefox when that happens?

Any chance that an open webpage is refreshing at some sort of interval?

I have MSN as my home page, the only open tab. This happening on two windows 10 operating system PC'S I have. IE 11 and all other apps allow the screen saver to come on as scheduled.
