A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Additional information, I usually right click the links for FTD into a new tab, and may have another tab active as well.
Also, I'm usually visiting that site in Private Browsing just to keep the cache clear.

Dunno, never thought to track which line it returns.
Also can happen to me when browsing my deviantArt watchlist, (all deviant's), and I select the option to remove all the items on the page and delete them.
And I'll start looking at the error console when it happens.

And is actually the browser locked down before this message happen?
If it doesn't (that function takes less of one second for me), you may have either the dom.max_chrome_script_run_time or the dom.max_script_run_time [url=http://kb..org/About:config]about:config[/url] preference too low and you should reset them to their default values.
Otherwise, could you open Tools|Error Console, evaluate the following script and tell me what happens?
var o = Components.classes["@maone.net/noscript-service;1"].getService().wrappedJSObject;
(o.__parent__ || Components.utils.getGlobalForObject(o)).eval(function(_o) {
var t = Date.now();
var rx = InjectionChecker.invalidCharsRx;
_o.dom.mostRecentBrowserWindow.confirm((Date.now() - t) + "\n" + rx)
}.toSource())(o)

It stops responding and dings occur when I try anything, then it will switch to the tab with the non-responsive script with the dialog.

dom.max_chrome_script_run_time = 20
dom.max_script_run_time = 10
Neither bold, hence both default. Reset for the values is grayed out.

According to the message you get, which logs the time elapsed too, it took 9428 milliseconds, i.e. slightly less than 10 seconds.
That said, that code should run just once in the browser lifetime, first time an "invalid" character is found in an URL (result is cached), and it takes 597 milliseconds (a bit more than half a second) on my system.
What hardware have you got?
If it's relatively slow, you may want to increase the max_run_time prefs: if that code gets executed once, next iteration will take less than 1 millisecond.
Windows 2000 is by far the most stable OS I've ever had the pleasure of using, most of my systems go months without needing a reboot.
As long as you have a solid firewall and good antivirus available for it and pay attention to popups you'll never have serious issues with the system.
P.S. This is not to say that I don't get frustrated with them occasionally, like when I want to use IOCTL_DISK_GET_DRIVE_GEOMETRY_EX and get pinged off that minimum supported OS for that function is not what I'm currently using, ...

Oh well, if it makes you feel secure… Looking at the list of possibly open holes (security fixes for XP after 2K's EOL) would give me the shivers. I hope for you that you are aware of where the limitations of firewalls and anti-virus software are.

My sentiments exactly. But this statement makes it appear that Colin does not.

Users that think that AVs protect them usually wind up infected, but it sounds like Colin has been lucky so far. I hope the luck continues.
