Please disable the hardware acceleration in tools/options/advanced/general followed by a Firefox restart.
Please post the graphic section from about:support (enter it as URL in FF) in this bug if disabling the acceleration fixed the problem.

I can repro the Issue without HWA (D3D9) using Safemode against Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:2.2a1pre) Gecko/20110412 Firefox/4.2a1pre ID:20110412030535

Resizing the given Site Example triggers an JS Alert with the Text "Resize".
Keeping on resizing gives a full white Chrome/Content Window in my Case.

Sometimes you can escape from this by using ESC =)

I suspect that this could be related to the effect applied with modal tab dialogs, even if it's strange the the full window becomes black. cc-ing dolske in case.

If you change prompts.tab_modal.enabled to false, can you still reproduce?
