Default What is this?

I was browsing firefox, when this prompt began popping up constantly (see attachment). I clicked "Cancel" every time it appeared, and eventually managed to stop it by closing the browser then reopening it, but eventually it started coming up again. I just want to make sure it's not a virus or anything harmful to my computer, and if it is, how I can get rid of it.
