Most useless support forum on the entire internet.
I have been having the same problem and just found the root cause and solution.
This is likely caused by the Web Fixer add on. If you have this add on installed, you should have a small icon on the bottom right corner of Firefox (next to the authentication padlock icon) that says Fix. Click this to access the Web Fixer menu and choose Quick Settings --> Change Settings --> Other Options tab. Uncheck the box labeled "Show message on security errors."
You may need to restart Firefox for the fix to work.
Hope this helps, this problem was driving me nuts!
It's driving me nuts too but I see no such option when exploring the options menu of the addon
Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode 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).
