Just turn off javascript and you will find browsing nirvana.
That was my original solution, but alas, these days enough sites use javascript for basic functionality that turning it off renders a good portion of the web unusable.
I've never seen the pop-ups. I browse without javascript or images. I'm only interested in content. The mistake in your message is "good" portion of the web. For those of us interested in content, we find nothing missing. On those rare occasions where javascript provides useful functionality, and I've personally examined the page source, I turn on javascript and reload. For the security conscious, javascript is unconscionable. -- William Allen Simpson Key fingerprint = 17 40 5E 67 15 6F 31 26 DD 0D B9 9B 6A 15 2C 32
