CSS Popups

Post by CurtTampa »

Is there any way to stop those annoying CSS Popups. I'm guessing that's what they are called. Little 'boxes' that open up over the web page with a 'Join Now' option and an 'x' to close them.
I'm running the latest NoScript, but they still pop up Everywhere, No script is a Fantastic product. It's stopped several potential problems.

There is no universal solution, these have to be zapped on a case by case basis.
Adblock Plus (with Fanboy's Annoyances List + custom filters as needed), or NoScript surrogate script, might help here.
*Always* check the changelogs BEFORE updating that important software!

Also, if you're using NoScript and you don't want to enable JavaScript, neither write a permanent filter/surrogate to get rid of it because you won't come back on that page, you can try mousedown+[CANC] to zap it on the fly.
