in reply to Popup blocker for IE

Neat, but it only works if I use the 'Shift-Click' method of opening new windows. Maybe I should read the ole' OLE docs.
PS. Activestate perl 5.8.0, win.2k.sp3, ie6.0.2800

    Hmmm... interesting. Tested on three computers: XP/IE 6 Perl 5.8 (friend), Win2K sp3 IE 5.5 (home), and Win2K sp3 IE 6 (work). It worked as advertised on all three.

    According to MSDN, the NewWindow2 event is fired before every new window opened. Are you sure you're using the IE window opened by the script? It will print the URL of every site that tries to open a new window and the script should stop when you close that window.

    Anyway, it was useful for it's purpose. I use Mozilla as my everyday browser, so I never see an unwanted popup.
