stupid popups ..

[pamf]

does anyone have any idea what those damned "|" popups are for? i get them sometimes.. | is the only thing in the title, i cant bring up the window, and whenever i try to right click on it to close it i get a damned message box with nothing at all in it.. theyre HIGHLY IRRITATING.. since i cant close them i usually end up killing the process. geez.

way to make me want to buy from your company, annoy me into purchasing from you!

Use Mozilla (www.mozilla.org), and in Preferences, under Advanced, tell Mozilla that Javascript is not allowed to open unrequested windows. Problem solved.

a browser switch is pretty drastic just to stop popups... there are lots of software to block popups, i feel the best is meaya popup killer.

Come to think of it, downloading and installing someone's 3rd-party popup-killer sounds pretty drastic too. (Note also the implication that these popup-killers have the possibility of doing things in addition to killing popups... *dons tinfoil hat*)

well thats no fun 😛 i can do that ANYHOW!

so far this popup ad filter is pretty sweet tho.. didn't kill filenazi's popups (a darn shame) but it did keep the porn and warez sites down lol
