... Is a Site I am currently working on, (hosted by freewebs ) containing a bunch of annoying Alert Boxes that you can't get rid of without shutting down your computer! It's completely legit (not a virus) and anyone can do it with a little HTML Coding. The site is below:

I am updating this daily and adding more and more crap onto it so If you have anything you would like me to add on just say so!

Peace,

I've just got out of it.

.. quite easy too, just a little lateral thinking.
(browser isn't closed off, and you can do it with only one or two pop-up boxes appearing)

Really? Enlighten me.

Steps to take:

1) click on link in this page
2) pop-up appears
3) click on web-page
4) hit the escape and then backspace keys
5) hit 'ok' one or maybe two times (since the webpage has changed, the javascript is no longer valid).

This works on Linux Firefox V 2.0.0.10
I'm half-betting it's also valid in Windows Firefox.

And I'm just going to expect IE doesn't.

Alright then, thanks.

That took literally 20 seconds of clicking before every alert box was closed, pssh. Why didn't you just loop 1 with javascript or php or something? how about a tiny flash script that causes your browser to stop responding.

Also, I could just click anywhere else outside the window or ctrl-alt-del/ctrl-shift-esc and just end the process.

You have entirely too much time on your hands and didn't think this out.

Are you feeling the love in this room?

Nope.

I've seen one with 750 boxes, yours was nowhere near. I got through it with the little trick of pressing both enters really fast, ended in about 5 seconds...

You could have just held down the [enter] key..

Hmm... didn't think of that. I still beat it with no thought at all in seconds... Come on Thanatos, you can do better!

really annoying and pointless.

No one else has asked, so I might as well...

What, er, was the point of this?

To annoy you...

Nice to know he spent his time on such a worthy project.

Nice to know you insult everything anyone here in this forum has ever done.

Ah, Thanatos. My, you can dish it out but you sure can’t take it, can you? Would you mind terribly if I referred to you as Michael the Gamer Mk II from now on?

Frankly im just wondering what you lose by being kind - having a heart, for once.

Yes, Michael. Whatever.

BTW, you'd better quit arguing with me. Don't you have 15 huge epic games to finish?
