If you install the FireFox browser, and the NoScript plug-in, then you can toggle JavaScript on / JavaScript off when viewing web sites. Toggle JavaScript off and no more pop-ups when reading the ATEV board. If you need to post to the board, toggle JavaScript on long enough to post (since the REPLY button requires Javascript). mjl
FireFox, free for download: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/ NoScript plug-in, also free: http://www.noscript.net/ Alternately, you can simply whine, or stomp on Charlie Brown's marbles and declare that you are not going to visit the board again. Presumably, toggling JavaScript off also deactivates any cookies, ad ware, etc., but someone else can advise that. mjl
