Which code didn't work? all of the code that I had posted (new window, same window) they all worked for getting you out of the planetclick.com frames crap. The only problem I have with my latest code is that once you are out of their frames, in netscape, your page keeps reloading over & over again. But they have all worked.
Are you saying they are taking out Java (as in Java applets) or are they taking out Javascript? I haven't had any problems with Javascript not working (unless it is included in the 'href' which they modify. If the last code I posted (which I removed since it had a bug) didn't work then the problem maybe related more to your server than to their code. I'll work on it more tonight (already spent too long working on it @ work =] ) & see if I can't get it finished.
I can't afford a laywer so I was going to send email to anyone who has a website who might be interested in fighting the battle for me. Nike is a good place to start since they just spent $6 million on their site & seeing it through planetclick.com you can't get off the homepage. I figure get a few big companies (nike, amazon, buy, etc.) involved see if they care about someone modifying millions of dollars of code & making it not work.

BINGO! I have also been looking through their 'eyes' at other bigger sites for that same reason!!
If you notice the source code isbeing altered. I beleive what they do is 'pull' the source code from the site, alter it, disabling any javscript referrancing 'windows' ('new', target_blank', 'open', ect.). and 'serve' it through their frames, much like the software some sites have for you to 'move' a site (Site Sucker is one such program) only this one doesn't 'store' the content, only serves you the code which your browser then reads. Now because the code is no longer being served from the originating site, you get the outside linking effect.
Really sneaky huh?

They do modify the source code. However they only modify the HREF's in my pages. I am wondering if you are having problems with new windows because you are on FortuneCity. They maybe disabling select Javascript from sites like this (tripod, geocities, etc.) so they can diable the opening of new windows for banner placement.
On my page the ONLY code they have modified is anything inside the HREF of an Anchor tag. Everything else stays the same.
