AOL + EarthLink are both blocking Pop Ups. A code to stop them?

[Bryce NewMedia]

AOL and Earthlink now both have a option to block popups automatically in their browser. Is there a htacess code, or perhaps even a software that will counteract their software and either make the popups still appear, or have the surfers who are using the software go to a warning page that tells them they can only view our site if they allow popups to be diplayed?

I think this is a great option. Pop ups suck and make people nervous about even clicking a sponsor link.

I'm sure someone will come out with something that unblocks the blocks if it is not already out.

Yip then they will start blocking your IP.

I give my surfers lots of links to Panic Ware so they can get a free pop up stopper. You should too.

AOL is like the government, they don't want any competition.

Bryce, (or anyone) where in aol browser settings is this new pop up stopper found??

you can block it on the server side with some code , but I'm not sure what it is, aol looks at the page but the code on the server is not seen , I saw it once a while ago but don't have my own servers so didn't follow it up - I used the search engines to find the info though.
