firefox and popups

it seems that devious advertisers are trying to get around firefox's pop-up blocking ability. if you are getting pop-ups, you can follow these instructions to turn them off. the firefox team hasn't turned this off by default because they are still researching whether there are sites that use this functionality as part of their regular flows.

also, if you hadn't heard, firefox 1.0.1 is out and fixes the domain pseudo-hijacking that was possible in 1.0.
