Firefox Improves Pop-Up Ad Blocking

BlakeCaldwell writes "The popular open-source browser already contains a pop-up blocker by default, but this does not handle pop-ups launched by plug-ins such as Flash and Java. Mozilla employee Asa Dotzler wrote in his blog last week that Mozilla developers are responding to the increasing number of advertisers that are using plug-ins to launch pop-up ads."

    Its HERE - The GNAA Antidote!!

    If you are one of those poor soles who have been tricked into joining the dreaded GNAA, then DO NOT DESPAIR for we have the solution!

    Ingredients
    -----------
    1 x Gay Nigger (YUO)
    1 x bottle of crazy glue
    1 x bottle of bleach
    1 x briefcase

    Procedure
    -----------
    Step 1. Cure your Gayness
    To do this you need to first of all burn all your gay magazines and then delete all the gay porn on your hard drive
    Pull down your pants and then punch your faggoty boyfriend who immediately tries to attack your ass. Open the bottle of crazy glue and insert it into your anus - squeeze the entire bottle in there and then place some duct tape over the opening and leave for 3 hours to set. [Note - you should go to the toilet *before* doing this step]

    Step 2. Cure your Blackness
    It's hard to be black - people disrespect you, and even with 435,781 black rap bands you are still classed as a complete loser.
    You first need to take off all your clothes and wash yourself in bleach - repeat 15 times and you will then be as white as Micheal Jackson

    Step 3. Walk the Walk
    Ok - you are no longer gay, and you are no longer a nigger - you have no officially resigend from the GNAA and its time to TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR LIFE!
    Wear some nice clothes (no hip hop shit or baggy crap - I said NICE CLOTHES. You should also take the briefcase and carry it every where you go.

    Congratulations - you are cured of the GNAA

    Still think you're happy with Firefox?


    Ummm, those are what we call "pictures". If you can find a kindergarten teacher in your neighbourhood, they could (probably) explain the concept to you.

    Goatse doesn't use any browser holes to perpetrate his particular brand of education as far as I'm aware. Although I'm sure he would be more than willing to use your hole if he came across you on one of your regular visits to the Blue Oyster Club.
