Blocking Pop-ups
 

Here's a real newbie question. How do I turn off pop-ups in Konqueror? I can't find it anywhere.

use mozilla 1.4 if u don't mind the unstable java 1.4.2 runtime

Netscape -> edit -> preference, can be cofigured to block unrequested pop-up ..

The only thing I am finding about popups in Konqueror is under Settings under the 'Konqueror Browser" selection and under the 'Javascript' tab.

Take a look at that.

Settings -> Java & JavaScript -> JavaScript
Set JavaScript Web Popups Policy to Ask, Deny or Smart.

thank you

how do I block advertisements?
is there some software available that will do it for me?

Um, you could download Mozilla Firebird and the get the ad block extension - but I guess that would require a bit too much downloading!
