Hi, go to Options (cog wheel) - in the 3-bar menu unless you've moved it, > General (Startup) and deselect 'Always check if Firefox is your default browser.'

Note, you are using an old version of Firefox, which can compromise your security and may cause other problems. To update it to v47, open the 3-bar menu > Help (question mark at bottom right) > About Firefox. Alternatively, you can press the Alt key to bring up the main menu bar > Help > About Firefox. More - Update Firefox to the latest release.

If your question is resolved by this or another answer, please take a minute to let us know. Thank you.
