I visited that page with Mozilla for Windows, the nightly build from 2-29-04, and it crashed. No pop-up windows came up - infact, nothing came up. In theory, what should have happened?

Edit: kinda sucks that : ) with no space automagically becomes a smiley.

Well I'm using the original Mozilla, and I haven't seen a pop up in ages. I even went out of my way visiting the sites known for the worst popups (porn sites) still nothing. I hope they fix firefox and it works as good as the Mozilla popup blocker.

I still love the "technology preview" moniker. The damn thing is release quality, and has been released
more of that "beta obsession"
