Hey Jeff, As Jim Harrison says, you can create a site and content rule to refuse a known popup url, but you will still "get a popup with an ISA refusal message" . I would like to add that it is possible to add a site and content rule that Redirects to an internal site ("redirect to this URL" option in site & content rules) that has its own script code to close the browser window. Why not create a 'refusal' set and a 'popup' set with different internal redirections that log the results? That way, you can continually audit successful destination sets from erronous redirections. .fares ----- Original Message ----- From: "cismic" <cismic@xxxxxxx> To: "[ISAserver.org Discussion List]" <isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2002 4:45 PM Subject: [isalist] Re: Is there a way to block popup advertisements > http://www.ISAserver.org > > > The only way to effectively deal with popup windows is to disable > scripting.
