Using release 31.0 on Mavericks OS.

I was somehow attacked and it took me to here: DO NOT OPEN THIS URL: alert24world4xi.us which locks up the Firefox browser (can't close, can't navigate away.) I forced a close only to discover when I relaunched FF I was right back at the attack site and unable to exit.

It is a fake NSA warning that demands money

I had to trash FF and reinstall.

Thanks good people! Another FF security pot hole to fill.
