Something New II

Also noting that Chrome has a new & better pop-up blocker. So far (Once, anyway.) it's stopped the pop, rather than merely minimizing it to the taskbar.

In Firefox I use the indispensable Tab Mix Plus, which in combination with adblockers and other stuff completely eliminates popups and so on.

If there's a Chrome Tab Mix plus I might look into it, but otherwise that's what keeps me with Mozilla.

Whatever it was hasn't happened again. Usually Chrome puts pop-ups in the taskbar, w/o announcing how wonderful it is for it to have stopped one. (Almost as irky as an actual pop-up. Just do your job & shut up, we say.)

You could check the Chrome Web Store. Various "Ad-Block" apps or extensions or whatever they call 'em.
