Had the same problem here. It was only w/ the American Beagler Forum. A couple of other forums I frequent had no issues w/ my FireFox.

Since yesterday when they fix the Foxfire issue. I get this message on my Internet Explorer 9. The message appear in a pop box at the bottom of the screen. " Internet Explorer has modified this page to help prevent cross-site scripting"
It appears on Tab and RHO.

What is Cross Site Scripting?
Cross site scripting (also known as XSS) occurs when a web application gathers malicious data from a user. The data is usually gathered in the form of a hyperlink which contains malicious content within it. The user will most likely click on this link from another website, instant message, or simply just reading a web board or email message. Usually the attacker will encode the malicious portion of the link to the site in HEX (or other encoding methods) so the request is less suspicious looking to the user when clicked on. After the data is collected by the web application, it creates an output page for the user containing the malicious data that was originally sent to it, but in a manner to make it appear as valid content from the website. Many popular guestbook and forum programs allow users to submit posts with html and javascript embedded in them
