LJ, now with new and amazing pop up ad

that I wish I could put it in the microwave and hear it scream. Me hopes there is a blocker for this crap as well.

There's a blocker called "paid account." :)

Not gotten any add popups on my end. I'm just using a standard Firefox.

One thing I've noticed, as people get more annoyed at a certain type of add, and take steps to block them, companies find something ten time more annoying to subject everyone to. First it was the banner ads. Eewww, evil, let's block them. Then came popups, okay, now a new level of annoy, so now we have popup blockers. Now we have those uber-annoying flash ads which cover the text you're trying to read, and sometimes crawl around your browser window, getting in the way (often with a close box that's hard to see, and hard to click because sometimes the ads move around).
