Pop-Up question
Apr. 18th, 2005 04:21 amThis is a question for those of you into Apache settings, and blocking pop-ups and alerts which simulate pop-ups, pop-unders:
I had heard some reports that certain pop-up methods are now getting through Firefox, and I saw my first evidence of that tonight. Instead of spawning a new window, it used a javascript-type floating frame. Later on, I still saw two actual new window pop-ups get through, even though they came up blank.
So I've been considering running AdGate, which uses the Apache underpinnings of System X to work. The question is, will this really be infallible and worth it to bother with, in your opinions?

Anyways, thanks in advance if you have any comments!
p.s. I'm only considering this because although iCab (my favorite browser) works flawlessly in this area in the classic system, it is not as good as of yet in system X, so that's why I'm considering these measures, and continuing to use Firefox for now on the system X machine.
