What worked for me:

Go to Edit --> Preferences --> Content --> uncheck the "Enable Javascript" box

When I click on the link you posted above, I can close it. Prior to unchecking that box, I had to restart the computer to get it to close.

Hope this helps.

John474 Is there a way of blocking this site? If I disable java script what else am I preventing from enjoying? Thanks John
