Hi Virgil, if a website asked you to do this, it might be aware that one of its scripts isn't running, but not know why.

Built-in Features

Firefox's Tracking Protection feature may be triggering the message. You can click the shield icon toward the left end of the address bar to manage this feature. On the panel that drops down, click the blue slider switch to turn off protection on the site. See: Enhanced Tracking Protection in Firefox for desktop.

Any difference?

Add-ons

There are many extensions that counter ads and tracking. Examples include Adblock Plus, Blur, Disconnect, DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials, Ghostery, NoScript, Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin and uMatrix.

You can manage them by checking their toolbar buttons. These may be on the Extensions button (puzzle piece button) drop-down, or directly on the toolbar. Sometimes there is a number on the icon indicating the number of blocked items. Try making exceptions for the complaining site.

Ref. Manage your extensions using the extensions button in the toolbar

Any luck so far?
