Snopes, Ugh

I want to know how Snopes invariably jumps the blocks on pop-up windows.

Google toolbar has everything so tightened down that I can't right-click a link and open in a new window unless I also hold down control, but without fail snopes.com pops up annoying adds.

I think working for snope's web development team is selling your soul to the dark side. I recently configured a little used browser (Safari for PC) with the default to javascript OFF, so that when a family member sends me a nutty forward I can CUT and PASTE the content from snopes.

THIS POST is yet another example of why you're my hero. (Cue serenade of annoying Better Midler song.)
