Windows Security alert for Firefox

For the past couple of days, every time I open Firefox, Windows prompts me to accept or deny Firefox making changes to my settings.

I've seen no significant evidence of any settings being changed except my theme being set back to it's default colors, then switching back once Firefox is closed.

This is entirely random to me. Any ideas?

Since Firefox is superior, this is a thread aimed at getting rid of the security alert on Firefox. That's like posting in a thread asking for help on Windows and posting "get a mac k".

Also, have you installed any Add Ons to Firefox? Or extensions? Or changed any settings?

You said Windows or Firefox? Cause that sounds like a security thing on Windows.

No it's Windows that's doing it, although the options for it being the fault of Firefox are open. I have all sorts of extensions installed Dragon but all of them have worked fine in the past.

Any recent ones since the problem arose? Or have any of them updated at all?
