Adult web sites: Here's How:
1. Speed is the key. If you hit the 'X' for closing the window right after the window pops up you can stop it from running the code that opens more windows.
2. Relax and treat it like a video game. You'll get faster as you get in the habit of responding immediately to an attack.
3. Generally JavaScript is used to spawn the new window. You can turn off the JavaScript in your browser options (see below). The downside is that you may lose some other functions you want.
4. There are several software programs designed to kill pop-up windows. PopUp Killer is a free one.

The Problem
You click on a link, or enter or exit a site, and one or more windows or consoles (smaller ad windows) pop up.
The Solution
JavaScript is used and you can turn it off in your browser. You will lose some functionality you might otherwise want to have, though. You can also install programs that will automatically kill these pop-ups.
