I was surfing the web and somehow ended up at the above site. When I tried to close the page, I was asked if I wanted to leave the page. I answered I wanted to leave, and it asked me again about leaving. . . .and again, and again, and again, and...... I tried to close Firefox, but still was asked about leaving. I ended up using the computers task manager to close Firefox. Can someone tell me how to contact the FF programers about this?

This issue is most likely not a Firefox issue.

This website is most likely trying to harm your computer. Scan your computer fully for viruses, malware and other harmful files.

If this is a Firefox issue, than running Firefox in Safe Mode should fix the issue.

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.


Further information can be found in the Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware article.
