Ok, seriously - I might be just the only blogger in Poland that hasn't written anything about Nasza-klasa.pl in the passing year. It's basically social networking site where you write all schools you went to, and it helps you find people from the same school, the same class and so on.

Well, anyway - my wife seems to like it, and she spends quite a lot of time there, and she found this on...
I sometimes come across a website that pops up a window with some video, chat or something, but its size is fixed, and it doesn't fit in it, when opened in Firefox.

While installing it, I received one of the most bizarre notifications I've ever seen. Oh, and clicking 'ignore' causes the installer to exit with an error. Any ideas?
