In this thread, roll over your mouse on Sukhoi's sig. He/she has a javascript for an anandtech.com pop-up...not sure if it may be a fusetalk bug or if Sukhoi did it her/himself

Just maybe, this might explain the pop-ups that many people, even subscribers have been having. Chances are, there are probably many more people that have similar scripts in their sigs

EDIT: The code for the lazy...

Oops...no, I didn't roll over the smiley. My bad. Window popped up as soon as I did.
 
There was a thread about that vulnerability a long time ago, and IIRC at that time Zuni put in some code that prevents sigs from having that code added to them. However, AFAIK, it doesn't (didn't?) check sigs that already had the code in them, and it appears that this one has been "grandfathered." I still think it (i.e. his sig) should be "fixed" because those kind of things are very annoying. :|
