After getting a new theme the preferences dialog cannot be closed.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Preferences->Appearance->Themes
2.Click on get new themes
3.Click on deskmod.org


Actual Results:  There is no way to close the window titled "Deskmod Your Souce
for ..."


Expected Results:  Should be able to close it
WorksForMe using FizzillaCFM/2002062203.
I have just discovered that it depends on your value of
Preferences->Advanced->Scripts and Plugins->(Allow web pages to)Open a link in a
new window

I still think this is a bug:

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Make sure that Preferences->Advanced->Scripts and Plugins->(Allow web pages
to)Open a link in a new window is not checked
2.Restart Mozilla
3.Open Preferences->Appearance->Themes
4.Click on get new themes
5.Click on deskmod.org


Actual Results:  There is no way to close the window titled "Deskmod Your Souce
for ..."
Expected Results:  Should be able to close it
What build are you using now? Using FizzillaCFM/2002081503, I see an option to
"Allow scripts to:" and "Open unrequested windows." in
Preferences/Advanced/Scripts & Plugins. Perhaps it's changed recently. Anyway,
with that unchecked, this still WorksForMe.
Build 2002081408 for mac osx.  

Greg: is the deskmod.org page meant to appear in the same window as the
preferences or should it open a new window?  In my case it appears in the same
window which is why I cannot close it.
Julius, when I access Mozilla/Preferences/Appearance/Themes and click "Get New
Themes", a new browser window is opened, titled "Download A Mozilla Theme". If I
then click DeskMod, another new browser window is opened, showing the DeskMod site.

Are you saying these pages are opened in your *Preferences* window? Can you
attach a screenshot?
this is my fault. you'll see a message in the jsconsole which shows the problem.
