How to Fix Firefox From Redirecting to Different Websites
One of the scripts often encountered on webpages is automatic redirecting to another page or site. While this is often innocent in nature, some webpages use this to direct you to harmful or offensive websites that you didn't want to go to. The Firefox web browser has a feature that can fix this problem. When the feature is enabled, redirecting will no longer occur without your consent.

I tried that but don't have any prompts to prevent, only gives me the option to allow.
