A sugestion; If possible enable firefox to close a tab even when annoying dialog boxes try to keep you on a web page.
I am sure you know the problem, and I assume it's difficult to fix or you would have done it by now. Many web sites try to make it difficult to exit by having endless dialog boxes appear when you try to close the tab. "do you really want to leave" "do you really really want to leave". It would make browsing easier, and less worrisome if it were possible to close that sites tab without ever touching their dialog boxes. You have a great product thanks for your efforts especially on security.

See:
- AlertCheck: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/13176/
Firefox 4 will have a built-in option similar to the AlertCheck add-on to let users close tabs where you get the infinite loop of alert boxes.
