[WEB4LIB] Re: Popups

[Marc Truitt]

Okay, silly question time...

I'd *love* to kill the popups, if I could only find the option.  I went 
looking through my Mozilla preferences last night.  Either I looked 
straight at the option several times and failed to see it, or it is 
labelled in a fashion that is less than fully intuitive to me.  In 
either case, I'm sorry to say that I missed it.  Would someone please 
tell me exactly where in Preferences I can set this option?  I'm running 
Mozilla 1.0 on RH7.2.

Thanks in advance,
