Every time I am in Facebook and want to click on any of my other pages or my friends pages, I have the notice that Firefox is not allowing the automatic transfer to the other page. I then will click on Allow and it will sometimes let me transfer then the next time I want to go to another page I have to click on Allow or X. It also takes along time to process any of the actions I want. I like Firefox 3.5.18 better than the other "newer" ones that I had trouble using. I have not had any problems with Firefox until about four days ago. This problem seems to only be when I am in Facebook.

See:

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"

The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.
