What s up with the video "permission" screen ? How can I remove it ?

I never had this until recently...when I try to watch a video, whether linked on fb. email or on a news site , I get a small screen asking for permission to store information on my computer. I try to deny, but it seldom works. What is going on and how do I fix it ? Do I dare allow the download or am I setting myself up for disaster if I do ???

Did I get this after I upgraded my Adobe flashplayer ? Should I uninstall it ? Thanks...non-computer geek here. :-)

    DO NOT grant it permission. Sounds like your computer may be infected with a Trojan or some kind of virus. I'd suggest looking up free Trojan and spyware removers. Seems there is some kind of spyware or virus on your computer.

    Try to get rid of it as quickly as you can.
