So I shared this link with a private IRC channel for some of the people I work with. All of a sudden one guy starts typing:
<guy>WTF HOW DO i GET IT OFF THE SCREEN?
<Me>huh? Maybe you have to cancel the popup box
<guy>I can't close it now
<Me>close what?
<guy>The window from clicking your link
<guy>it won't let me click on anything
<guy>Now I have to reboot
<Me>um, hold on
***guy has signed off
<Me> did you try killing the...nevermind
That might explain my system locking up after I did the same (canceled the 'what is your name' dialog) That blody page locked up Windows explorrer, killed the taskbar, killed page refreshing (you drag a window accross the screen and it doesn't refresh where the window isn't... so you get the edge of the window looking like a 'hall of mirrors') I had to go through and close all my apps, then rebot the PC to get it back up and running.... gotta love MicroS**t and IE....
