Firefox and Pop-ups

firefox logo

The purveyors of pop-ups are getting smarter, but they haven't outfoxed Firefox yet.

One thing that gives Firefox its mass appeal is it’s solid pop-up blocker. Now Mozilla’s pop-up blocker is being challenged. There are some websites that have found a way around the blocker after its first pop-up is blocked. One such website is Ngemu.com; Firefox and Mozilla will both block the first pop-up, however after the user clicks on a link such as “XBOX”, a pop up appears. Bugzilla’s website contains a bug report of the problem including the source code for the work around.
