We have a fairly large (few hundred items) published calendar on our website
running Apache/WebDAV -- everything works fine except when we get the "Slow
running script" message along with a WebDAV login prompt and an alarm at the
same time -- then everything freezes up and none of the windows respond to
input. Is there a way perhaps to disable the "Slow running script" message?

Reproducible: Sometimes

You can try setting the dom.max_script_run_time preference to an extremely high
number which should effectively disable it.  To do this you should probably
create a user.js file and include the value as a user_pref.  I believe the
Calendar Help Project has information on how to do this.

Please test if this is reproducable in a nightly build as well.
