User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-GB; rv:1.9.2) Gecko/20100115 Firefox/3.6

After clicking a link to download, I switched to another task (Thunderbird). When I came back to Firefox, the "Save Download" dialog had opened, but so had and "Unresponsive Script" one (I don't know if this was caused by the same website or another tab).

In any case, I could not confirm/cancel either dialog. The "Save Download" dialog would still highlight the buttons being clicked ("Save" or "Cancel") but just stay open. The "Unresponsive Script" dialog behind it would not react to mouse or keyboard at all.

Only solution was to kill the firefox-bin process.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click Download.
2. Do *not* confirm "Save Download" dialog yet.
2. Switch apps/create lots of CPU cycles/swapping to provoke an "Unresponsive Script" dialog.
3. Both dialogs should be open now and block each other.
