I use a website about 2 or 3 times a week. After logging onto the website, it needs to redirect me to another page but always asks for my permission to allow. Where in the Tools, Options does it allow me to give automatic permission to be redirected. Otherwise, I sit looking at the screen waiting for it to change, having not noticed ther bar at the top of the page, waiting!! Thanks

Is there a way to allow the page redirect for specific domains? E.g. using a trusted list? There are some sites I use that always require redirect, e.g. after login, but I don't want to allow redirect for any site.

Go to the Advance panel of the Options dialog, in the General tab there is a setting "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.
