That is an alert. Something is trying to change your home page. What is the web address of the unwanted homepage?

It looks like your Firefox is current. Did you update from Mozilla.org ?

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • see if there are updates for your graphics drivers

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
