As a partial workaround set dom.disable_window_flip to

No need to scare users by telling them they need to use
"about:config". Disabling "Allow scripts to: Raise or lower
windows" under "Tools/Options/Web Features/Advanced" does
the same.

NTBugtraq Editor's Note:

Most viruses these days use spoofed email addresses. As such, using an 
Anti-Virus product which automatically notifies the perceived sender of a 
message it believes is infected may well cause more harm than good. Someone who 
did not actually send you a virus may receive the notification and scramble 
their support staff to find an infection which never existed in the first 
place. Suggest such notifications be disabled by whomever is responsible for 
your AV, or at least that the idea is considered.
