If you use safari, go get a copy of Pith Helmet from versiontracker: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/18158 You can use it to block all sorts of stuff, including worthless ads on webpages and popups. It's free, and wicked easy to use. (Install and forget) Bill | The next meeting of the Louisville Computer Society will | be January 27.
