Every now and then, when I fire up Firefox, I find myself at
the NoScript web page. I don't like being taken someplace
that I haven't planned to go to! What is allowing this to
happen?

It can be switched off in NS Options

do a manual update check, YOU choose when to allow a state change to
your computer and getting a notice page won't be a surprise. You choose
when to check for updates, you see which add-ons have a new version, and
you choose to click on an update button so you'll know why that notice
page showed up.
