Hi Ken,

My personal feelings agree with John Raabe.... I tend to find pop-ups annoying. I don't use any pop-ups at present, BUT if I did, I would definitely make sure that the same pop-up doesn't repeatedly pop-up for the same visitor.... For example, you can use javascript code (using cookies) to ensure that the same pop-up doesn't keep repeatedly popping up for the same visitor (which can be very annoying)....

Here's an example of what I mean.... The pop-up only occurs when you LEAVE the site the first time.... then after that, it won't appear again.

(There are probably many other examples around.)
