Any suggestions on how to deal?

I had that problem... and yes, it was some site's page with wild or outright broken javascript.  Installed NoScript, a Firefox add-on, and using that, severely limit what javascript can run. Since then I've been good.

?

Yes.

It can also be accessed from within Firefox -> Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions.  Then search for it, etc.
