You are about to log in to the site "hotmail.co.uk" with the username "jd-66", but the website does not require authentication. This may be an attempt to trick you.
Is "hotmail.co.uk" the site you want to visit?
How can I stop getting this message each time I click my home page. I have set my home page to Hotmail

Hi james70,
What lizhenry said makes sense, if the url you're using is containing your username it might be that you're just getting a notification from Firefox trying to protect you :). Sometimes Firefox does that in order to avoid spoofing attacks or you going to a domain you don't want to go to. I think you can actually turn the notification off, check these two sources below, there are some instructions on how to turn that off.

Hi james70,
Does the url you're using contain your username, or your username and password? Check to make sure the url itself only has https://hotmail.co.uk.
Does this happen if you start Firefox in Safe Mode? If not, the problem may be from an add-on.
