I had to cut power to the machine before I could get the window to close.
It didn't try to open any other pages on me, but I have McAfee and Firefox with pop-up blocking. It might not be warning me when it blocks.

Sorry that you had issues. Either your settings are too sensitive (or you have your notification set to tell you everything) or my Firefox/McAfee combination has let in some junk.

I'll see what the weekly virus scan turns up.
