BobF_ Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I hate rollover popups. Getting my mouse from one side of the forum window to the other pops stuff up all over the place. Yes, forum related stuff. No, not pRon. Is there an account setting I can change that will make these require a click to open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capmaster Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Same here. I feel annoyed when they just hide the area I want to view or click into. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may save having to click to see what they reveal, but then they're in the way and you have to click to get rid of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Not sure if it will work for you, Bob (and Cap) but I have Adblock Plus installed - it's free to download. Using Firefox as a search engine there is a control tab (usually extreme top-left corner) where there is a dialogue box to control add-ons, plug-ins and extensions. With Adblock Plus activated - and a check to make sure nothing has wormed itself into 'allow' (there usually is) - I get absolutely no ads whatsoever on any site I visit. P.

They are post summaries that pop up in windows as you move the mouse around For regular popups (and unders) I use the in-built blocker in Firefox. Works great!

Oddly enough I only normally get one pop-up - the topic preview immediately to the left of the 'Started By' column. What other pop-ups am I missing!?!? Anything worthwhile?... P.

That's the same one I think. Nope, not worthwhile at all for me :) Darn things are apparently right in my favored navigation lane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
