Re : SI doing pop up ads -- I am seeing none. I use Netscape 4.74. Are you using that dickless Microsoft product, by any chance ? (I have no idea if this might explain it ...) Jon.

there is a way. download and install Opera (http://www.opera.com) and then go to file > quick preferences > refuse pop-up windows. voila. for this and many other reasons, you'll never miss MS Internet Explorer, believe me. ___ <<Does anyone have a way of stopping the recent flood of persistent pop-up ads on the SI threads? Lately it has become a great annoyance, doubling the loading time for each message window.>>
