Just yesterday I spent awhile searching for a Firefox extension that would allow some control over those windows from hell. No luck. The hateful aspect of them that got me started on the search is the inability to resize the windows. Ugh! I can see a perverse rational for not wanting other UI elements to appear since they may interfere with the layout of your impossible to navigate site, but the ability to resize the windows is invisible. The only time it makes any difference to your user's experience is when they *want* to resize a window and find out that you won't let them. Thank you kind webmaster. For a second there I thought I actually wanted to see the whole contents of your page. Now I know better. I think I'll go outside instead.There's stuff above here
