I have some 3rd party software where i can open nsites and run javascript. Because some sites make me stack overflow i ussed the trick wih Registry to modify Styles WRAD to FFFFFF.

Still some sites may do stack overflow due to DOM.

I thought on start of running each site i would do javascript: setTimeout("window.status='one';",10000);

then on then end i would like to clear it - my question is how to if this doesnt have any actual id? Will the usual clearTimeout() without anything inside do it fine?
