I am constantly being shown this message: "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page." Why does this happen?

Do a malware check with some malware scan programs. You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.

That message is a result of your settings

• Firefox button/File > Options > Advanced > General > un-check "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page" to no longer see that message
