[olug] Mozilla 1.3b -- Where's my popup blocker?!?

[Brian Wiese]

Could you be more specific?...
I'm runing Mozilla 1.2.1 on Debian, and I can't find that setting
anywhere... I loved Phoenix, now I come back to mozilla (suppored bring up
'in background' in tabbed window option) but they don't support popup add
blocking?

Popups also bug me in opera, honestly - I haven't looked around enough yet
to see if I can turn them off...
