A script on this page is causing Internet Explorer to run slowly

This is a typical error message that pops up with IE or Firefox, but I want to do something not so typical to get rid of it. Have IE/FireFox always stop the script without asking.

Most places online focus on getting rid of the message by either increasing the Styles max script statements in IE found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/175500
or the max execution time in Firefox.

I don't want to increase this value, I want to decrease it, I just want to not see the prompt and have the answer always be stop the script.

The issue is that I never see such a prompt unless there is a script error or a malicious website that I don't want to run anyway, so what I would like to do is set this value to something like 100000 (1 second or less for FireFox) instead of 5 million, and have IE automatically stop scripts that exceed this value.

I want to stop long and slow scripts in their tracks. This way I can still use any sites with good fast scripts, but anything slow or malicious is instantly killed.

Thanks
