Bart,

If you are using Firefox v. 1.5.0.6, you can type

about:config

into the address bar, and if you type "time" into the filter field, 
you will see a number of preference entries, one of which is:

dom.max_script_run_time

which is set to 5 seconds by default.
You can change the value to 60 to 80 seconds to eliminated the 
multiple cancellation windows.

HTH,
Dave
