From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.1b) Gecko/20020721
BuildID:    20020721

some web pages pop-up another smaller window that I can not change its size. 
This is very annoying.  Please don't let web pages lock the size of the window.
 Please add an option for this under preferences -> Advanced -> Scripts &
plugins.  You can call it "prevent web pages from locking the window size" or
something similar.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. visit a web page like www.cnn.com or www.ibm.com that launches a pop up window
2.
3.

I think it will be impossible to create an "ignore that"- preference for any
javascript- statement ... :-/
