Javascript is evil. I run with it off and only turn it on for trusted
sites (i.e. my bank) that don't otherwise work. With it off, I hardly
ever get popup ads and other worthless cruft. If a site doesn't provide
a why to work without it, its hardly worth my time. I recommend this
approach to everyone, because the only way to get rid of it is to
essentially boycott sites that don't work without it.

(This is true 10x in e-mail.)
