I HATE SNAPSHOT THING.

[krait]

Please, o wonderful flist, tell me there's some way to kill these snapshot-popup-linkpreview things? I have (I think) disabled them in my own journal, but I still see them whenever I'm, well, anywhere that's not my own journal.

I cannot even express how annoying I find them, and I seem to recall a post somewhere that had instructions on how to get rid of them... surely there's a way to avoid seeing them at all (short of starting a revolt, conquering LJ, and annihilating the whole thing at the root)?

Does my computer security (I have AVG and ZoneAlarm) have anything to do with this? Why doesn't my pop-up blocker catch them?

The longer I stick around LJ, the more pleasant and sensible I'm finding IJ and JournalFen...

I think you're right. :D I have now dismantled it, and it hasn't dared show its face again so far...

And yes, it is annoying! I keep boggling over the fact that somehow, somewhere, someone thought this was a good idea -- and convinced an entire team of developers to go along!
