seems to be happening at random intervals around 5-10 minutes and seems to pause longer every so often... it started at first midnight 2012. so i can only assume that someone was wishing a "happy new year" ... well back at ya ... but now it won't stop.

I was getting the same today, it does seemed to have stopped now. Fingers crossed it stays that way.

Ok, I was getting that too! I was at work (shh!) - we use FireFox. I also use FireFox at home and... checking... it doesn't seem to be happening here (although they may have sorted it out already - I'm not going back to work to find out!)

 

Edit to add: Five minutes later the "Yes" window did pop up. :(

once i click on the "OK" i get an option to prevent the page from creating further dialogs, lets see if it works

The code causing the bug provided in this post indicates it'll resolve itself over time and doesn't require any action.

 

"resolve itself over time"? yeah in 365 days from now...woohoo lmao

I get it in FireFox but it does not have the x out window like on Internet Explorer. Does not do much except when you agree with it it jumps you out of the tab your in and back to a previous tab on your screen.

Yep - happening here too. I had one window open with the Beta Map, and was composing a log in the other window when it suddenly popped up. Not over the map....over the log!

It is getting as much fun as the Magellan Communicator asking if I wanted to upgrade to a newer version time and time again....even though I have done so. More than once, I might add!

Windows XP SP2 and Windows 7 on the two computers we were using.

But unfortunately it will pop up every leap year.

in ScriptResource.axd :

 

DateTime.isLeapYear = function (year) {
   if (((year % 4 == 0) && (year % 100 != 0)) || (year % 400 == 0)) {
       alert("yes");
       return true;
   }

   return false;
};

 

This piece of code is executed only for leap years :)

If it happens once it's a bug, twice it's a feature, three times it's a design decision.

 

And what is it if it happens like 100 times?! :huh::lol: Annoying, I'd say...

Anyway, glad to see it's not just me... and btw, happy 2012 everyone! :)
