I can't imagine that this is the case, it would be a pretty fundamental bug in some widely used window managers. Since it's your theory, give it a try, I've tested with sawfish and metacity and seen no popup. > > i have also, just in case, just upgraded mozilla-firefox, to 1.0.6. > > the symptoms are the same. -- Eric Dorland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ICQ: #61138586, Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1024D/16D970C6 097C 4861 9934 27A0 8E1C 2B0A 61E9 8ECF 16D9 70C6 -BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK- Version: 3.12 GCS d- s++: a-- C+++ UL+++ P++ L++ E++ W++ N+ o K- w+ O?

Still no popup here. Any extensions installed?

you have to move the mouse over an advert. "mouse move" appears to have been overloaded in javascript or some-such to indicate "popup". do a search and then keep moving the mouse over portions of the page. you _will_ find that popups occur, despite the warnings "firefox detected a site attempting to do a popup" at the top of the window.
