thanks antony

I dropped in to the media release and website, and dipped my toe into 
it.  I bet this cost a squillion dollars and it gives you advice like 
this at 
http://www.cybersmart.gov.au/Parents/Keeping%20your%20computer%20secure/Pop%20ups.aspx:

"A number of popular browsers including Safari, Opera and Netscape allow 
you to change your settings to block pop-ups. Check the ‘Help’ options 
on these browsers for information. Internet Explorer also enables 
Windows Vista users to block pop-up windows."

Who uses Netscape today unless they are an AOL customer and last I heard 
there werent a lot of those in Australia.

My blood pressure wont stand anymore dipping today.


cheers
