    New IE "feature"

    IE keeps asking me if I really, really, cross my heart want to navigate away from certain pages after I've clicked the back button. Is there a way to turn this most annoying "feature" off?

    Is that an IE feature, or a feature built into the page(s) in question?

    I'd bet it's the pages themselves.

    Yep, it's a Javascript thing. You can turn off script execution in most browsers although I don't know for sure if you can in IE. If it becomes a real problem, I'd suggest switching to Firefox as your day-to-day browser and installing the No Script plug-in.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
