block -ALL- popups in firefox

Anyone know of extensions or whatever that can do this? Including popups when you click on something in the webpage. The [B]only [/B]way I want a popup to get through is if I allow it to by holding ctrl or something.

@Stephen_PhilbinFeb 14.2009 — Just install the NoScript extension. It disables Javascript (the language used to make popups) on any site that you haven't already told it to allow.

It will also protect you from any malicious Javascript code that may have been inserted into a page/site too.

On the down-side, though, you might find that pages/sites built by trendy idiots (seems to be the majority) may lose a lot of functionality or just not work at all until you disable NoScript for that site/page.
