Browser popup window has been a hot topic for few years now. There are sites that shamelessy open popup windows without asking your permission and even making those windows virtually impossible to close. Other sites have a more descent policy and they actually warn you about popups that they use or even give you an option to open link in a current window.<\/p>\n

Because of so many sites abusing popup window technology, many browsers (like Mozilla<\/a>) started to add popup blocking functionality. There are also standalone applications that limit the amount of nerves you lose while browsing.<\/p>\n

PopupTest<\/a> is the site that allows you to test how good your popup blocking software works. Many different technologies are implemented there. I have tried all of those with FireFox 0.8 and found that only three types of popups can get through to me – mouseOver, drop down, and sticky.
