Because some scripts may take an excessive amount of time to run, Internet Explorer prompts the user to decide whether to continue running the slow script. Some tests and benchmarks may use scripts that take a long time to run. Therefore, you may want to increase the amount of time that passes before the message box appears. In Internet Explorer, the script time-out value can be changed on specific client computers by modifying a registry entry.
