It's the same code in FF as IE7. I've compared the served
code ..
Can we see, not that I don't doubt your word .. :)

Same has happened in IE 6 about a week ago. I ended up doing a
<CTRL-ALT-DEL>, bring up Task Manager and killing IE 6. This had
to do with a deviant advertiser on http://www.m-w.com/ AKA
Mirriam Webster dictionary site. Since then, it has been
removed. (However, it breeched my trust with M-W.)
It was one of those "Click this to download" security checker.
Yeah, right. Clicking on upper right hand "X" kept the nuisant
dialogue box returning. I wasn't about to click the decline button.
Then I did the next best thing. I replaced the favourite with
the UK Cambridge dictionary site, http://dictionary.cambridge.org/
That site has no nasties. Problem solved.
