Looks like someone figured out how to beat Firefox's latest popup stopper implementation. I've had to resort to using the HOSTS file to block them - they're only from 4 or 5 domains.

I haven't seen then yet, what sites?

a.tribalfusion.com is one of them. It comes up if you got to http://www.dilbert.com/ (gotta have my Dilbert in the morning).

that and a lot more rolex emails...........my isp has pretty weak spam blocking...i have email accounts for my kids, but only one has any access, but he very rarely uses it ...the other day I checked and he had 1200+ spam emails since mid august...

I went to dilbert, and firfox prevented the pop up

oh wait, now it came up.....

Kinda old news consider yourself lucky if you haven't seen them yet. First started when the midlevel geeks started telling all the mommies and techna phobes. Who happen to be pop-up targets. If you have another browser that does any better it would only "do so" till everyone found out about it. Much the same way P2p's shifted popularity and MPAA,RIAA followed the popular one's. If they could make IRC easy or fast it would have followed Napster,grokster and the clones.
Moral of the story ,Find something good dont share it if you wanna keep it.

Any one want to make some "I loved mozilla before it was cool" T-shrits?

I loved mozilla way back when it was like .80 god I was so sick of netscape. Anyway I didn't notice anything on dilbert.com but I am using Epiphany.

found it forgot what part of java is the culprit. java Script allows for pop-up workaround.
with out it nothing happens no pop-up nadaIII.
