Firefox won't allow sites to load

Too many sites won't load until I click the "allow" bar. I want Firefox to stop doing this so I can access sites without clicking allow every time. How do I do this?
I am using windows xp and I did not have this problem with Internet Explorer.

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.

  • How do I defeat or whitelist the "Firefox has blocked this site from loading another web page" function?

    Often when I click a link within a web page, a message bar appears at the top of the page saying "Firefox has blocked this site from loading another page" or something similar. This happens frequently on banking or credit card sites. This is particularly annoying because it seems to disturb the operation of the link when I have to click the "Allow" box on the message bar. I would prefer to create a whitelist for this feature so it would not interrupt my banking operations. Failing that, I would like to know how to toggle the feature on and off. Failing that, I would like to know how to defeat the function.

  • My system needs internet explorer for a application I need to down load, however I need to down load the latest yahoo tool bar for internet explorer to work properly and firefox will not allow the down load of yahoo toolbar. How do I fix this?

    I have not used Internet explorer since downloading firefox and I need IE for a trading platform that I need to use. In order to get IE working I apparently need to down load the latest version of Yahoo toolbar, however when I try to down load the tool bar Firefox will not allow the down load of that file.

    Thank you so much, for once in my computer life I knew what the problem was, what caused it, why it was caused, what it did, what it made it do and most importantly how to fix it and to do it correctly and expeditiously. I can not Thank You all enough for all of the help! I also have Pogo mailed this to all on my friends list, where they have all learned as I have and have fixed theirs also. and the message is being spread. Thank You again, I just can not say it enough.

  • Since latest Firefox update, other web sites will load but Netflix will not. Netflix will load in Internet Explorer.

    Since latest Firefox update, other web sites will load but Netflix will not. Netflix will load in Internet Explorer.

    Does it matter whether you use www? Will the sign-in link open: https://signup.netflix.com/#do-login
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server. Any difference? If not...
    2. Clear Firefox's Cache Completely
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    3. If needed, remove the site's cookies in this dialog
    While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • When adding bookmarks and trying to changing its name, Firefox won't allow using the mouse; Firefox will only allow using the arrow keys (MAC OS 10.5, Firefox 3.6.8)

    When adding a bookmark sometimes the web page name is too long. I used to be able to use my mouse, highlight the letters/words that I don't want, then use delete to truncate the desired bookmark name. Since the latest update/upgrade, Firefox won't let me use the mouse to click anywhere in the popup box. I can only use the arrow keys and the delete key.
    Nothing other than updates (using Mac Software Update and Firefox Update) has been done to this computer (it's a 2002 Power Mac G4-Dual 1.25GHz).

  • Web limiting won't allow sites that should be OK

    I have web limiting turned on and it seemed to work fine until today.  Now it will not allow a site that should be allowed.
    I have "targetsite" listed as an allowed site.  I can go to www.targetsite.com.  A link on targetsite redirects to www.targetsite.com/ContentDelivery.aspx?ca=parameter and this page is not allowed. 
    What else can I do to make this page available?
    Peggy Thrasher

    The Web Limiting feature of WMS2012 is very basic, but at least it's better than the one in WMS2011, which only worked with IE and slowed everything down. Because websites contain so many third-party content servers from Amazon, google, etc., I'm constantly
    going into the source code of websites or my router's web filter to see what's missing and why only part of the website is coming up. Then I add all of those extra sites into the whitelist.
    The WMS web limiting feature needs a wildcard feature and keyword feature (e.g. "ftp://*" to block all ftp sites). Perhaps even a checkmark screen for commonly blocked things like google images, ftp, etc.
    It needs a global checkbox to block all traffic except for the whitelist but still respect the blacklist. That way we could also use the blacklist to fine tune the whitelist. For instance, we could whitelist google.com but then blacklist:
    "*google.com/imgres?*" to prevent image URLs.
    "*google.com/preferences?*" to prevent users from adjusting safe filtering
    It needs a trusted site feature where it will trust all the links from a trusted site so you don't have to put a dozen extra URLs into the whitelist and hope the website doesn't switch content servers. I suppose this would be resource intensive because Microsoft
    would have to look at the source code of every page or at least ones in this special trusted site section. It wouldn't be able to handle content in iframes (which are usually ads anyway), but it would be a start.
    It needs a time schedule for web limiting.
    It needs web limiting on a per user or per group basis, including for administrator accounts.
    All of these features need to work with https traffic as well.

  • Firefox won't allow some sites to open lightboxes or login popups.

    OS: Windows 8.1 (64 bit) x64 AMD E-300 Processor
    Firefox 25.0.1
    I just got a new laptop and have discovered this issue: When I try to click links on some sites to open a lightbox or popup (usually for login boxes or photo slideshows) nothing happens. Absolutely nothing, no error message, no loading screen, no "busy" or "working" animations, no redirect. I've tried the same pages in the latest versions of Internet Explorer and Chrome and they work correctly. These sites work on my old laptop with the same version of Firefox and Vista SP2 32 bit and my work computer with Windows 7 64 bit.
    I've tried disabling Add-Ons one by one and as a group, didn't make a difference. I've cleared the cache and cookies. I've turned by firewall and antivirus/antispyware/antimalware programs on and off.
    Sites with a known issue: "View larger images" on Zillow.com, Login on Moviepilot.com, Login on doubletakedeals.com. I can't remember any others at the moment.

    If you use extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that can block content (e.g. Adblock Plus, NoScript, Flash Block, Ghostery) then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

    You can inspect and manage the permissions for all domains on the <b>about:permissions</b> page or for the domain in the currently selected tab by clicking the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar and "More Information" to open "Page Info" and go to the Permissions tab.

  • Firefox won't allow me to down load adobe flash player

    Don't know where to find the window to allow firefox to download adobe flash player

    <u>'''Install/Update Adobe Flash for Firefox'''</u>
    If you are seeing a yellow bar telling you to add something to the allowed list, that is an out-of-date instruction on the Adobe site. Use the following instructions instead.
    #Use Firefox to download the Adobe (Shockwave) Flash file. <u>The Adobe Flash file must be SAVED to your hard drive.</u> You then exit Firefox (File > Exit), check to see that Firefox is completely closed (''Ctrl+Alt+Del, choose Task Manager, click Processes tab, if Firefox is on the list, right-click "firefox" and choose End process, close the Task Manager window''), then click the file you downloaded for Adobe Flash and allow it to install before restarting Firefox.
    #Click the "Flash Player download page" link and follow further instructions here: '''[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+the+Flash+plugin#Updating_Flash Updating Flash]'''
    *<u>'''NOTE: On Vista and Windows 7'''</u> you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). See this: http://vistasupport.mvps.org/run_as_administrator.htm

  • The new firefox won't allow me to auto sign in even to sites I'm approved

    I HATE the new Firefox. It keeps making me "allow" moving to different sites, even when it's within a site. Also, even though I have allowed certain sites (e.g., APA.org) it will not allow me to automatically reload or sign in. This is totally frustrating b/c it means I cannot even manually enter my password and sign in. I NEED this site for my business and Firefox is preventing me from totally normal use.

    Try:
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    Next, try doing a manual install/update using the instructions here:

  • I've tried all the advice found in the troubleshoot area, i cleared all my history/cookies/cache and I firefox still wont allow gmail to load

    As stated in the question, I've tried various troubleshooting options found in the help area and on different forums, non of them helped. I tried starting in safe mode and cleared my history, cookies, and cache using the everything option. When I try to load any google related site I get an untrusted connection. While most of these is accompanied by "i understand the risks" and allow me to add it as an exception, gmail does not. Is there a way to stop this from happening, either by giving me the actual certificate for the site or telling me a way to remove this property from firefox?

    Check the date and time in the clock on your computer: (double) click the clock icon on the Windows Taskbar.
    Check out why the site is untrusted and click "Technical Details to expand this section.<br>If the certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided (sec_error_unknown_issuer) then see if you can install this intermediate certificate from another source.
    You can retrieve the certificate and check details like who issued certificates and expiration dates of certificates.
    *Click the link at the bottom of the error page: "I Understand the Risks"
    Let Firefox retrieve the certificate: "Add Exception" -> "Get Certificate".
    *Click the "View..." button and inspect the certificate and check who is the issuer of the certificate.
    You can see more Details like intermediate certificates that are used in the Details pane.
    If <b>"I Understand the Risks"</b> is missing then this page may be opened in an (i)frame and in that case try the right-click context menu and use "This Frame: Open Frame in New Tab".
    *Note that some firewalls monitor (secure) connections and that programs like Sendori or FiddlerRoot can intercept connections and send their own certificate instead of the website's certificate.
    *Note that it is not recommended to add a permanent exception in cases like this, so only use it to inspect the certificate.

  • Firefox goes to viral sites before loading my home page. I am getting scripts from these downloading onto my websites.

    Firefox seems to be scanning two websites prior to loading my homepage. These appear at the bottom left hand side of the screen as Firefox is loading. They are not always the same, but they load script onto my websites somehow. Today they are yiajwe.tk and rec-creations.com (as below). Please help - these are infecting my websites - I am a web designer.

    You will have this in your .htaccess file in the root directory of the website... I had it in more than one of my sites. You can see the rec_creation site at the bottom of the list.

    Whether it came from the host server, or my pc I don't know. But when I deleted this from all the .htaccess files it stopped Firefox doing it, now it goes straight to the homepage.. I did have a major crash two weeks ago and that's when this started so maybe it was my pc. Good luck.

  • Firefox won't open site - Mime type not being recognized?

    I'm taking over management of a site that hasn't been touched in 5 years or so, to rework it, and find it works fine in IE, but won't open in Firefox. There are .asp pages in the site, but I can't quite get the layout between the asp and html pages - honestly not sure how that works. The home page is (appears to be) html - Firefox gives the popup saying "You have chosen to open (blahblahblah).htm ... which is a: HTML document ... What should Firefox do with this file?..."  Site is here: http://www.sterlingclientservices.com .
    The host guy says no mime type is being sent, yet I see it there in the header. Any insight is greatly appreciated!
    Patrick

    This is not something that can be controlled by DW and is a server-side issue.  If you have a control panel you should be able to set this information on most hosts.  If you have this the application type for HTML documents should be text/html and ASP should be application/x-asp  or text/asp (I can't remember since it's been awhile since I've used ASP).
    If you do not have access to set this up your host would need to configure IIS properly to have this fixed for you.
