Test your Pop-up stopper

I assume the page works. Firefox stopped them if they were there.

Mozilla 1.6 tested A-OK on the first two multi-popup tests (which makes sense, because I have the block pop-up option on with some exceptions).

Although I do wonder sometimes, as

http://www.packetnews.com can get popups to occur anyway (and no, it's not on the exception list for blocked pop-ups).

I now know why. The popups only occur when you click a link on the page. Because clicking the link on the page is technically a "requested" action, what PN does is have a click event that loads an ad page when the link to the content is clicked. So, you get the content, and also an ad pops up. That's dirty pool.

You can beat it though, by right-clicking the link, and loading into a separate page or tab. No ad pops up.

Safari stopped everyone but the 'drop down' and the 'sticky' one..

Firebird stopped them all. And it also allowed the ones it was supposed to.

I love Firebird. :)
