I agree, those are annoying. Slightly less annoying but still frustrating are the sites now that try to help you by opening a pop-up whenever you select text.

No way.... Tell me that's not true. I'm one of those addicted text selecting text as I read it, that would kill me.
Heh, I thought I was the only one addicted to that. This makes it so much more frustrating to those of us that do that.
NYTimes is one site that does it, see this article: http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/19/us/19arctic.html
