Seems like these scripts are triggered by malvertising -- if your ad blocker is properly configured this should never happen.

  People with enough internet smarts to have an ad blocker aren't the target demographic for the ol' "your computer are hackered u are ded without u give us muney" JS dialog.

    I was under the impression that Firefox already shipped with an ad blocker by default?

      The default ad-blocking functionality won't block an attack like this. You'd need a more robust blocker like NoScript.
