Default Asking a new question.

s Each time I click "New" to start a thread I have to hold control to allow a
popup before the new question form opens. This happens for "General comments"
also. This allows a cookie to be installed for the popup. Is this required by
this site or can this be prevented so I can use the forun w/o allowing the
popup? Thank you. xyz
