Seems like more and more lately I get this damn "Double click" thing show up on
my computer.

Everytime I click on something, it will automatically double click and close a window
and any other window behind it that has the "X" directly behind it.

What are the internet assholes trying to achieve with this one?

Spy Bot and Ad-aware catch them and remove them...

But in the mean time

GM have you tried ad-aware to get this off of your computer? How about Virus scan?

Marketing companies are very desperate ever since the dot bombs of 2000.

i remember back when companies actually offered to pay you to put spyware on your computer.  now they just force it onto your machine whether you like it or not.  i can't believe it's still legal

I'm not sure what the OP is complaining about, but in FireFox (all mozilla browsers maybe) there is a set of options on what javascript is allowed to do.
Or not.
One of them is "allow javascript to reposition windows"; another is "allow javascript to resize windows".

You guys are missing the point.

It makes you "double click" know matter what.

For what reason are you writing this program?

imo, the people who write those programs or webpages or whatever you wanna call them are grade A assholes.  get yourself a good popup blocker and you won't have to deal with it very often...
