Pop Ups and Icons on Toolbar

I cannot get rid of the SHOP icon on the tool bar even though it is unchecked as per this:

<<# How to remove Net2Phone and other items from the Netscape toolbar
In Netscape 7 Navigator click Edit | Preferences and unselect Net2Phone (or any other toolbar items) in
the Select the buttons you want to see in the toolbars section.>>

Also I am still getting pop ups behind the window even though I coppied this into my user.js file

<<<# How to disable unrequested (pop-up/behind) windows:
Add this line to your user.js or prefs.js:
user_pref( "dom.disable_open_during_load ", true);

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi erg,

I'm not sure about your button, but I will certainly find out. I can't get rid of the "Search" button on my Personal Toolbar. I'm pretty certain this is a bug. I'll get back to you this. Frustrating isn't it?

I have a List of scripts that can be used for the user.js file, and this one caught my eye:

Prevent specific websites only:
user_pref( "capability.policy.popupsites.sites ", "http://www.website1.com http://www.website2.com ");
user_pref( "capability.policy.popupsites.Window.open ", "noAccess ");

If this doesn't do it, post back and by then I might have more info for you.

Thanks . In this one here <<user_pref( "capability.policy.popupsites.sites ", "http://www.website1.com http://www.website2.com ");>> is that it or do you have to past the website in place of the last one listed??

Hi erg,

Your script for the user.js file should block your popup/popunder ads. I use that line and haven't had any popup/under ads to date.

Give me links to the web pages that have the popup/unders, and let me see if I also get those ads.

Something else that totally slipped my mind, which would be much better than the script I just gave you to block specific sites, would be to install adblocker.xpi This file returns the UI in In Netscape 7, Edit | Preferences | Advanced - Scripts & Windows, to deselect or select the "Open unrequested windows ". The following is hot off the press:

Give me the links and I'll do a test run.

Thanks!

Thanks a bunch. I had seen that adbloker file earlier and like you forgot about it. Just installed it an so far, so good.

FWIW

I installed the adblocker.xpi and it did add the Preference option in Scripts & Plugins. However, on checking my .js files, I found none of the files which are listed above, with the exception of one. It was one that I added some time ago.
