Frankly speaking, I think I'd have a lot more trouble faking a notification area icon/indicator or whatever we want to call it these days than a popup, from a website point of view. I'm talking about all those weird banners that have Windows-like window borders. These popups can be just as easily spoofed using Ubuntu-styled window borders. -- Kind regards, Chow Loong Jin
