Every time one of these issues pops up with users crying foul, I can't help but grin, and be reminded of the popup-days of yesteryear.

Ah, the good old days - where a video player hijacking your homepage was nothing. People didn't get annoyed until it started spewing popups with "Your PC is not optimized! Click HERE", "You WIN! Click HERE". I bet if divx did that, they'd really make some money.
