The window.stop() method stops window loading, not unloading [1][2]. 
Besides, it is not supported in IE. So I'd rather discard it.

I think you want to stop unloading, something like:

window.addEventListener("beforeunload", function (e) {
   // ...
   e.preventDefault();
});

If you want to present a message to the user before unloading, then 
you'll need a workaround for 'almost' cross-browser compatibility [3].
