One of the new enhancements in Mozilla's latest release is the ability to
block most pop-up and pop-under ads that most users find so annoying.  The
following gives a little more detail on this feature than is provided in
the release notes:

Currently, you have to edit the prefs.js file to enable this feature.
However, I would expect that this feature will soon be available through
the browser interface.  The newest build of K-Meleon already has
incorporated this feature into its browser preferences, although it won't
be functional until the next build, based on Mozilla 0.9.4, is released.
