Answer 1

You need to implement the nsIPromptServcice2 and nsIPrompt interfaces

There you will get a list of methods (e.g. Alert();) where you simply don't provide an implementation. That will 'catch' the exception.

Create a following class (you will need to provide implementation for a bunch of methods, such as Alert, Confirm, Prompt etc

public class FilteredPromptService : nsIPromptService2, nsIPrompt
{

    public void Alert(string dialogTitle, string text)
    {
         //do your stuff here
    } 
    //... other methods to follow
}

Then, somewhere at the startup of the browser app (maybe in Application_Startup() in case of WPF), assign the prompt service:

PromptFactory.PromptServiceCreator = () => new FilteredPromptService();

Also, please notice that the above PromptService is static, so this will be applied to all instances of GeckoBrowser in your application.
