Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070400 SUSE/3.0.1-0.1 Firefox/3.0.1

If I go to http://scan-ia.com/19/?uid=152&in=1&xx=1&end=1&g=1&h=0&ag=1 firefox becomes unusable. So, be warned: do NOT go to this page unless you don't mind having to manually kill Firefox.

If you open the page, a bunch of popups/alerts will appear, press "Cancel" every time. After doing this for a while the page will begin an infinite loop where it creates a new alert as long as you press "Cancel". This means an alert is always visible. Apparently, I can't close a web page if it shows an alert, which means I can't close this page. Also, I can't change to a different tab, or use any of the menus in the main browser. From a practical point of view, I have no alternative than to kill Firefox to get rid of this page -- quite annoying.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to http://scan-ia.com/19/?uid=152&in=1&xx=1&end=1&g=1&h=0&ag=1
2. Press Cancel until an infinite loop is started
3. Try to close the web page
Actual Results:  
I can't close Firefox/the current tab

Expected Results:  
I would expect that I could close the tab

This is using the version of Firefox 3.0.1 that comes with OpenSUSE 11.0
