    Never occurred to me before last night, but now I'm wondering if browsers that block pop-ups keep a list of those sites?

    FE, I use IE and FireFox here, both of which are set to automatically block pop-ups. Do they log that somewhere?

    If so, where? And do those lists - if they exist - ever get cleared? Pete

    My guess is that it is stored in the browser's cache. So always clear the browser cache after browsing the internet. ;)

    Hmm... "clear the browser cache after browsing the Internet"

    I'll have to give that some consideration... :D Pete
