To block this virus resetting firefox (Menu -> Help -> Troubleshooting information -> Refresh Firefox) does not seems to help. Removing flash-plugin seemed to solve the problem but many websites still depend upon flash. Hence, better option is to install at least these three plugins:

  • Adblock plus
  • Ghostery
  • Web of Trust (WOT)

from Recommended firefox plugins to solve this problem.

Then in adblock plus settings go to "Advanced" -> "My filter list" and add

 http://naganoadigei.com/*

as filter

Other than this shifting most website access to https:// also seems to help. The attack is present on http websites only.
