Smart Redirect - URL Redirect Service

Summary:
URL- http://www.smartredirect.com
Description- YANRS (Yet Another Redirect Service!). They offer a variety of names, and options. Basically, you can have a masked URL, and an ugly Popup window. They claim they are the Number 1 free redirect service. But, I wonder how many people like the Popup ads? Here is how to eliminate their popups:

Special thanks to Jarryd for sending this tip in!

You can hijack [*] the popup window and close it using this script. Just put the following script inside the HEAD tags of your Web page:

<HEAD>
<TITLE>You Page Title Goes Here</TITLE>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
var winname1="So";
var winname2="me";
var windowname=winname1+winname2;
arbitrary = window.open("http://yahoo.com", windowname, "toolbar=no,
location=no,directories=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,status=no,width=530,height=230"); arbitrary.close();
// -->
</script>
</HEAD>

* The term "hijacking" in reference to popup ads was coined by Bill Webb. Check out his site with lots more info about hijacking windows - Counterexploitation and the Free Webpage Provider
