Subject: Javascript Bug in Firefox

Other than disabling Javascript, what are my options for these new
annoying popups?

<!-- FASTCLICK.COM POP-UNDER CODE v1.7e for macdailynews.com -->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><!--
var doc=document;  var url=escape(doc.location.href); var date_ob=new
Date();
doc.cookie='h2=o; path=/;';var bust=date_ob.getSeconds();
if(doc.cookie.indexOf('e=llo') <= 0 && doc.cookie.indexOf('2=o') > 0){
doc.write('<scr'+'ipt language="javascript"
src="http://media.fastclick.net');
doc.write('/w/pop.cgi?sid=9769&m=2&v=1.7e&u='+url+'&c='+bust+'"></scr'+'
ipt>');
date_ob.setTime(date_ob.getTime()+43200000);
doc.cookie='he=llo; path=/; expires='+ date_ob.toGMTString();} // -->
</script>

I've had a few like this - they "pop up" when you navigate away from the
tab.

And signing up with Bugzilla looks like a lot of work and I'm sure I
can't be the first person to have found this.
