The "Master Password Required" box pops up everytime I launch Firefox even though it is not needed. How do I stop it from coming up every time?

When I launch Firefox (It goes to the default Firefox page) the "Password Required " box come up to have the master password for software security device input. This default page does not require a password to enter.

Start Firefox in Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
