I was told it is illegal for a pop up not to have an opt-out path... |
|
Is this true? I am being driven insane by a netflix pop up that keeps showing up... Undertonenetworks.com is the site that is written on top of the window in the center.

2. Do NOT get the damn google toolbar... |
|
Whoever keeps recommending that thing needs to get smacked in the face with a rubber chicken.
The Google toolbar slows your system down to a crawl and is irritating as hell.

5. Have you right clicked and then clicked close? |
|
I've noticed that pop ups are taking longer to close these days. That's probably not covered in the law.

7. Get Netscape. Life will be good again. |
|
Disabling pop-ups is integrated into Netscape, you don't need those stinkin' 3rd party add-ons.

You can set it so only popups that you click on will actually appear. This would include things like the DU Smilie lookup box (it's a popup) and Yahoo Address Book!!!
