This window is not transient (5-th line), so the command would be:
Style "Netscape: New Netscape 6" GrabFocusOff
Just a note, if you use SloppyFocus or MouseFocus focus policies and the
window happens to be under the pointer, it will get a focus regardless of
GrabFocusOff.
Anyway, this line will not work, because the name is changed to "Netscape:
New Netscape 6" later, when the window already was mapped.
The initial name of this window is the same as for other Netscape window.
Something like "Netscape version...". I don't have Netscape 6.
There are also some pearls in
http://home.netscape.com/popup.js, which is
called from
http://home.netscape.com/, like:
var ad_percent = 20; // Possibility to get the popup (%)
if (win.focus) win.focus();
// Netscape 6.0 complains when focusing on newly opend window, saying
// "uncaught exception". This exception cannot be caught even if
// it's in try block.
// This is a known N6 bug, and no workaround is made here.
I don't know what to suggest. If disabling javascript or proxying out ad
links is not an option, can you simply configure other than
http://home.netscape.com/ page as your start page?
