It'll close the active window.

 

I can understand a muppet like Gorman now being aware of the Alt+F4
combination, but I thought you were at least partially technically
competant.

Alt+F4 is the keyboard short cut for File->Close, and merely shuts
down the active window; for pop-ups triggered by onUnload events, you
need to be quick off the mark and close the opened window before the
javascript engine kicks in.

 

Its nice to see you practising your conviviality ahead of your court
appearance.

 

Yes, I know.

I was suggesting if you had multiple pages of porn open, as one might,
that it'll only close the top one- potentially exposing heaven only
knows what horrors below.

 

See response to Blaney.

Well, I thought more along the lines of the monitor switch...

 

I wonder if people working for porn companies have the reverse problem. i.e
Boss comes in and sees a load of non-filthy images on your screen

 

The 'Show Desktop' icon is a god-send )

 

Where are you finding that shit! quick Alt+F4 works best to close those
little buggers down if you get them anyway. At the risk of preaching to the
educated - why not modify your host file. End of problems.

I just downloaded Hoststoggle today akcherly. Works fine for the odd site
where ad blocking makes backspacing a pain.

Top tip : use the keyboard instead of the mouse. Ddefinitely saves a
few 1/100s

 

Have you tried a custom made Spondon racing keyboard, pre drilled for
lightness.

 

The popups and extra windows happen all the time here at work. It even
happen when I'm opening up a local file. I don't have nearly as much of
a problem at home.

Good idea. Cheers.

 

0.329 over a vnc session, and about .17 the rest of the time.

 

Google for, download and install Proxomitron. Set it to load when
windows does (it's only small) and never see popups again. For that
matter, never see ads, javascript nasties, page counters, animated gifs,
etc.

Problem over.

 

That's fucking superb - just what I wanted and will also be installed
at home later. Cheers, Chris.

 

I just got 0 seconds

Fluke again though :-(
