Almost every time I go to a legit site, firefox displays a button on the upper right of the screen called "Allow." Sometimes I have to click it several times. How do I get rid of it?

I'm using windows 7 and don't recall having the problem on XP. I'm currently using version 28.0

Thank you

Thank you very much. I found it with Tools as the starting point, then found the warn me message in Advanced and, unclicked it as you said.

I'm hoping it will work but my guess is that I'll have to reboot or at least close and restart the browser.

Thanks again!
