Re: [newbie] Preventing Popups
If you install privoxy (In contrib I think) and then set up your browsers to use a proxy server on port 8118, then not only will you not get pop ups, you will also not get adverts. This also applies to any Windows computers running Internet Explorer in your local network. www.privoxy.org derek On Wednesday 02 Jul 2003 2:54 am, Miark wrote: Stephen, Mozilla: 1) Edit Preferences, then 2) Privacy Security Popup Windows 3) Click Suppress popups then OK.

You can configure this behaviour per site in/etc/privoxy/user.action, though. Look for info and examples i default.action. -- Björn Olsson Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
