I have a HTA script that I use to create special graphics in the form of
BMP files. As you can imagine, using script to create pixel by pixel
images is slow. That's OK. I expect it to take awhile. My problem is
that Windows 7 or the script engine or something isn't as patient as I
am and interrupts the script with a popup:

"Stop running this script?"

"A script on this page is causing your web browser to run slowly.
If it continues to run, your computer might bevome unresponsive."

and stops the script until I respond. With a particularly long running
script, this may happen more than once. Because the script is long
running, I may start it and go do something else while it runs, only to
come back and find it stopped by this popup box. Is there some way to
bypass this warning?

Isn't that maddening? It just keeps coming back.
This should fix it:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Styles\MaxScriptStatements

Set the DWORD value to FFFFFFFF

Thanks! That seemed to do the trick. I had to create MaxScriptStatements.
