Did not know that, but it seems to be mostly targeted for heavy users of sites like Facebook, Myspace, etc, so I don't think it would bring a lot of benefits for me.

I haven't gotten it to stop the actual popup window yet, but I have made it so that the window is empty. Another way to stop this is to modify the cookie expiration date. These image sites install a cookie that makes the popup window appear once every 24 hours (or something like that). If you set the "has seen popup window" cookie to expire after 1000 years or something, the popup is gone until you delete your cookies. I have done this with Imagebam, but it's a bit tricky to figure out which cookie to modify, so I can't really recommend this method to everyone.

The best way to stop it should have been the built-in popup blocker, but livejasmin seems to get around it.
