Build ID: 20180621125625

Steps to reproduce:

A website opened a popup window linked to https://d2o4x12t43g9re.cloudfront.net/ge/3/44d/firefox/indexnew.php


Win 10 64bit German  (therefoe maybe the /ge/ in the path)


Actual results:

The site opens two text boxes asking for user name and password and a scare message about the computer being infected.
I tried to close the checkbox and the tab without results by pressing the "x" symbol.
Also right click at the task bar and close window didn´t work

Had to use the task manager and shut down firefox completely


Expected results:

I should have been able to close tab or the message box by pressing the "x" button ow with other means...
