DU and Firefox browser, is anyone having this problem... [View all]

Suddenly my Firefox browser is warning me that DU is trying to redirect me to another page and it's annoying as hell. Here is what the warning says:

"Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page."

I haven't changed any settings and I think there was a recent Firefox update but not sure if it this issue corresponded with that update.

Is this happening to others on DU? Please, how do I stop it??

Go look around in the browser's advanced settings. MineralMan Jun 2015 #4
