Pop-up blocking to be added to IE with SP2.

Well, it looks like we don't have to wait for Longhorn andIE7 to have built in pop-up blocking with IE. IT is going to be added to SP2(IE6 will be updated to 6.05) and I'm sure there will be a standalone download verion of IE 6.05 for non-XP users.

I can see it now ...

Problem:  Popup blocker in Internet Explorer 6 SP2 contains a vulnerability that could allow a hacker to gain remote access and execute code on your computer.


And then there will be a patch to the patch to the service pack.
