How can I allow pop-ups even after "Block pop-ups" is NOT checked?

more options

When I'm on the Google Drive website (https://drive.google.com/) and I click Create > Document, I get the following message:

"Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page."

My only options on the far right are "Allow", and "[X]" to exit.

The URL for any new document starts with "https://docs.google.com/".

Seeing as creating a new Google document forces a new tab to open, I felt that this would fall under "pop-up windows".

Help, please!

This is not because of a blocked popup.
This is an accessability setting.

You can turn this off, by following these steps:

  1. Go to the Firefox Options
  2. Select the General Tab
  3. Uncheck the Warn me when websites try to reload...

Please report back soon.
