using javascript:self.close();  instead of 
javascript:window.self.close() worked for me on that anoying alert even 
in IE5.
but somehow, sometimes, note, really erratically, when using on mac with 
communicator i got the alert.
why not all the time, i don't know...

but, instead of calling a window via javascript en closing it same way, 
you could use php to create the page, then using another one to close 
it. both could be triggered from dir.

hope it helps a bit...
