Anyone interested in finally getting the #§#$%& popup windows to go away, please fix/track this bug. It seems that the original bug 29346 was closed because the "assigned to" person just didn't get it or didn't care. The bug all were referred to (bug 38966) is too general and not particularly interested in popups. Hopefully, this bug will stay open until the pesky problem is really fixed and not just **** around with as before. Here is my suggested UI: +--- Javascript Preferences ------------------------------------------+ | | | [*] Enable JavaScript | | | | Some web sites use javascrips to manipulate a browser's | | behavior.
