They pop up in IE and there is no way to close them. In Win98 you got to kill the browser which takes down everything else (unless your running Another Task Manager - which will kill threads). In W2K atleast you got the option of a task manager to kill them.

You cant minimize them, you cant kill them by right clicking on the task bar.. I hate those new popup's. A while back when teh AD industry said they would be bringing out ad's that cant be missed.. they must have been talking about these irritating ones.

well the most effective way (other than software... i'm not sure if puk will work here) is to vote with your wallet.

yes alt f4 works for all pops so far for me, I dont even chance clicking on their close window buttons, too risky!

If enough ppl get annoyed at it then a DDoS could come in handy if organised well :)
