I've read a bunch of posts and the MSFT KB article which say you can't
catch the javascript call to showModelessDialog() in order to prevent
the dialog from appearing.

However, IE7 seems to be able to block popups from websites which use
showModelessDialog() without the user clicking on anything.

I believe NewWindow3 event, new in IE7, does report such dialogs.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925

Nope, it doesn't :(- Hide quoted text -

Ok - so yes INewWindowManager::EvaluateNewWindow() does indeed work.
Thank you! By the way - I tried the hook procs but couldn't find the
IE Trident class name even though I examined all dialogs coming up
(including from Atoms).
