In A Perfect World

In a perfect world... I won't have to battle the multitude of pop-ups that fling themselves at my computer every time I visit Drudge. I'm almost tempted to write a perl script that sucks the headlines off his page sans pop-ups.

I realize the guy wants to make money off his site but this is ridiculous. Especially since the "University of Phoenix" ad tries to take over my computer.

Do you use an rss feed reader? There seems to be a number of feeds out there for drudgereport.

Make your world a bit more perfect by trashing your worn-out IE browser and install Mozilla Firefox instead... ;)

Richard,
Actually I do use firefox but I'm a few versions behind. Apparently the newer version has an rss feed built into it.
Deb - that's a good idea. I'll have to look for one.
Thanks,
Jim.

I had his pop up try to install GAIN software. That is some horrible stuff.
