how to open about.config so I can turn off the auto re-direct prevention
I want the browser to allow a website to re-direct it to another window or website automatically. As it is now I get a message that says Firefox prevented re-direct. I read that can be changed in the "about.config" section but I don't know how to find and open "about.config"

Hello alfredman,
This is how :
Type in the address bar about:config (press Enter)
(ignore the warning)
Type in the searchbar and look for the preference :
accessibility.blockautorefresh :
its value needs to be set to false to turn it OFF
its value needs to be set to true to turn it ON
(after a value has been changed : close and restart Firefox)
