Is there anything more annoying than a website that automatically maximizes your browser?

I have to admit, sites that play music (extra points for loud midi) are more annoying.

Yeah, the client that asked the web developer to just maximize the browser because the design they picked doesn’t look good at any resolution.

A website that resizes the browser window to something really tiny, somehow affecting your browser’s startup size to alm0st-nothing?

The only thing I find more annoying than one that maximizes your browser, is one that sets the size of your browser to the maximum screen area, which just looks like it is maximized, so you double click the title bar to get it back down to size and it maximizes resulting in no visible difference.

That’s definitely one of the most annoying, but I also hate sites which result in popups if you click on blank areas of the page. Something as simple as a click to give the browser window focus results in you being bombarded with ads (*cough* Dilbert.com *cough*).
