I'm not sure how effective that would be in this case, since cloudfront.net is often needed because many sites use it as their host. But, I expect that the problem url would show up differently in noscript, and you would be able to leave it disabled. Usually, cloudfront.net is disabled automatically for other urls. I'm not willing to test that expectation, for obvious reasons. :-)
I'm not clear on what this means. The url window showed .cloudfront.net .
You could test whether this is the solution by installing noscript, shutting down and restarting firefox to clear the cache of allowed sites (that is a setting in the privacy tab), and then visiting the site again. The site should be blocked, and you can click on the

noscript icon to see the list of urls that have been blocked from running javascript. If you want to experience the thrill again, you can allow javascript from the above problem address for confirmation. Then, turn it off, and the recovery is what you have already discovered.
Once the site was active, all I could click on was an always-on application that was already running. The site seemed to have made firefox fullscreen and turned off all its buttons. Javascript is client-side, correct? The problem went away after disabling networking. Is there a way to tell firefox never to let a website take it fullscreen?
