Repro:

0. Set RP to block requests to Paypal.
1. Visit http://www.elance.com/ and click "post your job"
2. Fill out some junk, this won't complete
3. Click go to paypal.
4. Realize RP is blocking paypal.
5. Click RP, set to allow paypal.
6. Observe Elance sets up a popup when you try to leave/reload the page.
7. RP can't change it's setting, and there's a deadlock

Expected: Unsure. Elance shouldn't be doing what they're doing; FF should probably not allow "on leave page" interference.
