sounds to me like your security settings are st way too high. Go to your internet options through control panel. click properties, then security. you probably have it set to high. set it to med-high. that should fix most of your problem. DON'T SET IT TOO LOW. it could be the death of your computer. you can also access firefox's internet options by right clicking the it's icon on your desktop.
I reinstalled windows 7 and firefox 3.6 and now every page I encounter needs to be "allowed" before it will come up on my screen...something about restricting redirecting web sites.
Can someone please help, it is so frustrating.
Where do I go to undue the problem.
Thanx for the help.
