Kill Sticky is great for getting rid of the dickovers on a website you're not planning to visit more than once. But if you visit a dickover website regularly, you can *permanently* block its dickovers by using the Adblock Plus (ABP) browser extension: adblockplus.org 34/

Once you have Adblock Plus installed, you can instruct your browser *never* to render a given website's dickover. Just load the website, hover your pointer over the dickover, and click your right mouse-button (Mac users need to ctrl-click). 35/

This will pop up a Firefox context menu, and at the bottom of that menu is "Block Element...". Select "Block Element," then move your mouse around the screen. Different regions of the screen will glow pink, showing you which element (part of the page) ABP can access there. 36/
