I occasionally get them... it's just your computer doesn't block the site that is doing it

It does for me. The very few popups I had were easily blocked by adding an "/*" after the sites name, such as:
www.popupsite.com/*

It works well.

I'm using FireFox 1.0.6 without a third party pop-up blocker (only the built in one) and I haven't gotten any pop-ups from this site.

Running Firefox and the beta of Pop-ups must die.
It's been awhile since I've seen any.

Same.... it's a screensavers one for me, used to be an ad for dual Xeon servers. I'm not worried enough about it to actually do something, I don't care

Funny...I wonder why I'm not getting any pop-ups? I get them when I'm at work when using IE, but not at home with FireFox. I wonder if any of the spyware blockers I use have anything to do with it?
