How to prevent this script from annoying you? (In IE)

[LOLyourFace]

</script>
<script language="JavaScript">
self.moveTo(0,0)
self.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight)
</script>


This script resizes your browser to your maximum monitor screen. (even though your window is NOT in maximized mode) I'm quite sure you guys know what I'm talking about. This sciript is often found anywhere outside of porn and is annoying me very much.

I even tried Mozilla FireFox, hoping it would prevent this from happening but FF is affected as well.

Is there a way to prevent your browser from resizing automatically?

Disable javascript.

ALT+F4

The fact that you tried to say it's found outside porn means it's all those porn sites you visit And turn off Javascript. Firefox and the "superior" browsers are supposed to stop that crap supposedly.

gimme a site that does this... because it's never happened for me in Opera.

Not sure if you've set this or not, but Mozilla has specific Javascript options under Preferences->Advanced->Scripts and Plug-ins, one of which is "Allow scripts to move or resize windows".

I hate when that happens... man.. sooo annoying.

why you don't look at porn?

if it was limited to porn, i couldn't careless. I don't visit porn via webpages anyways. It is found everywhere on non-porn sites, that's what pisses me off much.

NVM I FOUND IT! thank you! But is there a way to do this in IE as well? I like my IE very much before I move to Firefox completely. Besides, this is the only problem I have with IE anyways.

Don't think so without completely disabling Javascript, but that's why I switched to Mozilla in the first place.

Get Firefix.
Spend 30 seconds or so in the options. It's right in there in the advanced javascript options.

 

Don't use IE.
