Do you consider the pop-up to be an annoyance?

What popup? :P

BTW, like the Ellen Feiss thing.. heh heh.

I dislike any and all pop-ups. I can state for certain that if any website/forum that I visit regularly started to use pop-ups, I would rarely ever visit. They are just so freakin annoying.

(On a happier note, it took all day, but I have finally created a flurishing city in sim city 2000 for the ppc. Now, if only I knew why everyone likes to paint their buildings black after about a year )

Yeah, I hate pop-ups too. It's not an ad pop-up, it's a security warning, for jIRC

He's talking about the JPilot Security Warning Trust Permission for the IRC javascript.

I hate to say it, but when a security warning dialog pops up, I invariably press no, even if I trust the site 100%. When I'm on the web, installing and running stuff is not what I want to do in order to be able to fully enjoy a site.

While this may only popup the first time for most people, you have to remember that there are a lot of people who browse the web from more than one location/machine (workplace, school, internet cafe, etc). These people are going to be seeing that warning an awful lot of times.

I don't want some embedded IRC client loading up on some webpage anyway. ... well no, it's actually an interest idea. But nah, you'd get tons of guests logging onto your irc channel and never even talking. It would clutter the chahnnel, I'd bet.

Saying no to every box? While I can understand why, like the box says, if you can trust them, then it should be fine hitting yes (that's what digital signatures are for)

That sounds so wrong coming out of me, considering how I firmly believe that all this EXCESSIVE Flash crap, etc are evil.
