You people need to lighten up!

It was only a bit of fun! Sorry if I pissed you all off and I have deleted it now to stop any more annoyances.

Are you trying to become Mike100?

Funny would have been some Rick Astley stylee video or something else equally 100% irrelevant to Muse (possibly) headlining.  Not funny is something that can (and did) screw things up :P  

I don't know if that stupid page would have timed out all by itself eventually but whilst it was running it hogged firefox completely as well as most of the system resources in general therefore preventing anything else from working and with no way to close the d@mn page because of the incessant prompt boxes. That's why it wasn't funny - there was no apparent way out even after several minutes other than killing the browser. In addition to that, it also wanted to reload itself next time firefox was started after being killed off. That is NOT the way my setup of firefox usually works so presumably it must have tweaked something or other to make firefox reopen the page again the next time it was run.

For anyone not d@ft enough to have clicked the linky, you got a page full of something much like this:

but with the added hassle of no apparently sensible way to get rid of it other than killing it off and therefore losing anything else you happened to be doing at the same time as foolishly clicking linkies that were never likely to deliver what they promised.

Ok now I've read all that I apologise if it has caused problems on other peoples browsers.

I thought it would have been a joke but now I see that maybe doing a Rick Astley one would be funnier or if I didn't post anything at all.

Again I am sorry if this has harmed anyone elses machines :P

Exactly. At least it's not bouncecup.com. That website is truly disgusting.
