My home pages do not update because "Firefox has prevented this window from updating/redirecting" If I click Allow, it just repeats.

I have two add-ons: AdBlock Plus, and NoScript. The problem happens during the day, and overnight if I have PC in 'sleep' mode. I want it to be able to refresh to the latest news of the day, etc.

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.
