Most people are not going to disable javascript because they can't comprehend it or its too much of a nuisance. NoScript is great though when you set it to ignore bookmarks and can just hit "allow all this page". What bothers me most about this crap is the dialogue box used to interfere with closing the tab, also allowing the tab to reappear with session restore if you kill the whole window. The average n00bs have to be falling for this like dominoes.
