Blast! I have been sent to those things so many times, I should seriously start realising what it is, by now. Grr, at least holding down the enter key makes it go a bit faster.

the same thing happened to me as it did sonkem except i had just run out of energy to go through any more pop ups. ( ok so it doesn't take very much energy holding down the enter key but it was really really bugging me)

it did something wierd to my PC i think, although i'm not really sure.

the only way i could get rid of it was using the ctrl+alt+delete thing but that totally crashed my computer i seem to remember.....but i was determined not to agree with the stuff it was saying....i hate those sites with a passion...nearly as much as i hate the ones that scream....people should note that if they catch me out with a screaming one i will explode.....

Cute, but yes, probably very annoying if you can't escape.

Hint: if you want to ensure you can get out at any time, (without having to close your computer) or shut down ALL your browser tabs or windows, open the link in a new window. You can then escape by Alt-F4 (may need to keep your fingers on both these buttons for a very short while, just a second or four should do it). This works fine in Opera 7 and k-meleon browsers - haven't tried it in Internet Explorer (virtually never use Internet Explorer).
