firefox keeps blocking all links I click on to open in a new window even sites that are on my safe list and secure government sites as well. How do I stop?
firefox is blocking everything I have to click allow and on some sites I have to do it several times as the webpage reloads the page to a new survey. Very annoying ... enough so that I may stop using firefox and not recommend it to others.

Firefox normally will follow a redirect to a different address automatically.
Could you check that the redirect block has not been turned on? That setting is on the Advanced panel of the Preferences page:
"3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences > Advanced
On the General mini-tab, in the Accessibility section, uncheck the box for "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page"
If you changed that, any difference?
If that was already off, there might be an add-on, or some security software, or another filtering program that is changing the redirect from an automatic one to that intermediate page.
