Fun video, but I've never been pointed to a site with so many pop-ups,
pop-unders etc. I have Firefox with its own pop-up blocker and adblock
plugin and it was still a pain to navigate through and close down after...

Yep - Firefox 1.0.4 on XP. I just tried the same link with IE and
didn't get any pop-ups, but got 2 pop-unders - not sure if that's the
correct name, but that's what I call them: ads that open a new window
that stays under the main browser window so (unless you look for them)
you don't notice them until you close or move the browser.

I didn't get any pop-ups with Firefox either, just the message that it
had blocked pop-ups which prompted me to go looking for the pop-unders...

I have a theory that says XP suffers from far more pop-ups than ME(ok so
maybe its the only good thing about ME), I "think" it shouldn't make any
difference, but I just don't have a problem with pop-ups.
Stu who hopes the pop-up gods don't decide to teach me to keep my mouth shut

I'm on Opera...I've pretty much forgotten what popups are. It's always
vaguely unsettling surfing on other browsers now; I have to get my alt-F4
reflex happening again.
