And popups for all...
Even Mac OS? I rarely get pop-ups.
It's less about the operating system than it is about the browser. Firefox and Mozilla both offer built-in popup blockers that work very well. A few will get through every now and again. The default browser for Mac (Opera?) comes configured with popups blocked (I believe). The last time I knew, it works roughly as well as Firefox on the popup-blocking front.
Sadly if you're still using Internet Destroyer...er...Explorer, you're stuck with the popups (and virii, and adware, and spyware, and whatever other malware Microsoft is too stupid or lazy to block or fix) unless you buy one of the expensive commercial popup blockers. Of course, if you're still using Windoze and you haven't switched over to use Firefox, my inclination is almost to say you deserve what you get.
Firefox (or Mozilla if you want the whole enchilada) is the best browser, hands down. Yes, you will occasionally get messages that there is some content you can't get in Firefox, but believe me when I tell you, you don't want it.
