Websites that disable the freakin' back button on your browser!! You click the back button to go back to google or whatever, and all it does it refresh the page! It is soooooooooo annoying! How do they do that???

It's actually just a pre loader page, so when you click back it goes back to that page which in turn re-loads the page you were on.

Just click the drop down arrow next to the back button and go back wherever you want :p

to get around those pre-loader pages you have to use the drop down box next to the back button, try it out, kinda nice. ;)

I personally hate the sites that try to change your home page. Now those piss me off.

Really; scifi.com uses those. The worse ones are the kind that stay in focus even when you scroll down the page. I've also seen popups that move - the entire window will move around the screen, and it will actually try to move away from the cursor. Alt+F4 is your friend.
