aaargh!!!

is there anything so annoying as websites spawning tons of new browserwindows, which when closed, spawns even more!?

who the h*ll came up with the idea of allowing a page to start new pages when closed!?!

aah, felt good to get that out

on a more constructive side:
i do realise that noone enabled that function in a browser on purpose. it's merely a backside of java scripts, exploited by people from H*LL!! =/

but does someone know a way to prevent pages from doing this? if you do, please tell me. you would save my day!

LOL roundeye!

accually, i posted that thread after visiting a site with free fonts that someone recommended in a thread in 'digital art discussions'. it lanched a whole series of annoying windows that proceeded to launch more windows and so on...

but thanks for the tip anyway, i'll remember it!

Okay, figure this one out. When I'm in mIRC, I get pop up windows, lol, with no browser open at all.
