This alert pops regularly every 10-15 minutes:

This web page is being redirected to a new location. Would you like to resend the form data you have typed to the new location?

I did some serious research / checked for viruses / removed and reinstalled Thunderbird and Firefox. Please read this carefully. 1. With Firefox closed (default browser), I can open T-bird without any issues and use it just fine. but, 2. the minute that I open Firefox, T-bird give me a popup message of: This web page is being redirected to a new location. Would you like to resend the form data you have typed to the new location? This is not under the Firefox Browser. It is under the T-bird Tab of my computer.

It does not matter what kind of email you have open, whether it be text or HTML. It pops up.

If I have T-bird open (default email client) and use Chrome or IE with Firefox closed it doesn't happen.

Computer is Windows 7 Pro x64-Bit.

Can you provide a screenshot showing the pop-up? Pop-ups are uncommon in Thunderbird; my suspicion would be the browser.

This started after the latest Thunderbird update was applied. Like you I have done the same check outs. I found that Thunderbird starts then, without any direct request, FireFox starts as well. Then the messages start popping up. Have already checked and confirmed that the old FireFox posting fixes did not impact the behavior. Looking for an answer.

Same configuration Windows 7 ThinkPad T430.

what anti virus are you using? Sounds like a proxy issue and many anti virus programs stick themselves into the loop as a proxy.
