Default Another web site annoyance

I notice recently that a window appears shortly after some web sites load,
blocking the site's contants, with no exit 'X' in the upper right. Usually
getting you to sign up for something or other with your email address. Like
you don't already receive enough spem! is there any way to make these go
away without signing up? Probably not.

Some news sites, like New York Times, are now limiting the number of visits
to three or using the above blocking window. sigh

Getting so I'll have to find a replacement of some sort for much of my
internet usage. Is nothing sacred? g

TIA
