ING Direct; mysterious transient popup window on login

There is a pop-up for TNS Market Research. You may have a pop-up blocker that is closing the window before anything loads.

There is a similar pop-up when you close Cahoots, but it disappears on my machine instantly, Internet explorer with Zone Alarm

I use ING direct and the same thing happens.

My PC has all patches and up to date antivirus software, firewall, etc, so I am sure it is nothing to be worried about.

You've got to hate adverts, pop-ups and other filth on a banking site! I mean, for gods sake, they've got your money, what more do they want?

Ah, I see. Indeed my browser does have a built-in popup blocker.

If a site has something important to say it can do it by displaying a "Please read this important message" link in the main window (and I'd probably do so), rather than rudely conjuring up new windows unasked..

It is strange that the window appears momentarily given that all other unbidden popups elsewhere just never appear at all..

If it is market research, maybe I'll enable popups temporarily just so I can fill it in and whinge ;-)

(If they hadn't been so daft I'd have been quite happy to partake in genuine market research, solely because my views are usually so divergent from the average consumertron that they need some blip in the results ;-)

Hmmm...
