Watch Your Mouse

[goofyfish]

If you're already annoying, why not push further? So state the marching orders of travel site Orbitz. These "kick through" pop-up/under ads toss you to a site merely by mousing over the window, and it is EXTREMELY irritating. Orbitz joins X10 as the worst of the worst when it comes to Internet advertising, though this list doesn't even touch the steaming pile of spyware cretins. (Story here)

Peace.

and just when you thought pop-ups couldnt get more annoying...

I am one of the many that has turned to a browser that filters pop-ups and internet browsing is much more enjoyable. coupled with a firewall that blocks banners= life is good.

Email is already becoming unusable, soon many web pages will also become unusable.

I can't recommend a pop-up stopper enough. I wouldn't be able to survive browsing without one!

press alt+F4 that should help

[notme2000]

Doh, I just hit alt-f4 not knowing what it does, lol.

sorry! you have to have what ever you hate active not in the background use Alt+tab to move around without you mouse.

I get 300 emails a day of which only ~10 are relevent! filters help clear 95% of this crap out thx god for them!
