Websites that resize my browser’s window or maximize it are completely annoying. When someone does that to me, no matter how interesting their content may be, I go somewhere else instantly.

Now click on the Advanced button next to the “Enable JavaScript” checkbox. You’ll get the following dialog box:
Make sure to uncheck the following options:
