What does this script do?

[Jeremy]

On lots of websites I see the script below. What does it do? Thanks for
explaining!! Jeremy

<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function SymError()
{
return true;
}
window.onerror = SymError;
var SymRealWinOpen = window.open;

function SymWinOpen(url, name, attributes)
{
return (new Object());
}
window.open = SymWinOpen;
//-->
</script>

looks like a couple of JavaScript functions for opening a window and an
error function.

Hi,
pound to a penny (dollar to a cent that's a script for a popup ad
window - they're trying to make sure the ad window won't bring the whole
page down if it fails. There's better ways to do this - but not in this
newsgroup

It is generated by Norton IS as a popup blocker
