While I appreciate the inclusion of a built-in link to TVguide.com with the TV tuner in MC, I have one minor quibble: TVguide.com has too many pop-ups!
Is it at all possible to include some kind of pop-up blocking in the MC browser? I use Mozilla, so my pop-up blocker is built-in, and I don't use an external program. I'd like to be able to use the TVguide in MC without fighting back 3 or 4 pop-ups, but I'm really not interested in running a free-standing pop-up blocker (and hogging more system resources) when I alredy have one for my standard web browser.
So how about it? A little pop-up blocker in MC's browser? Please?!?! ;D

Why not try to include an integrated tv guide? I have tried this guide and it could be great to have not a complete web page but just a page with all cases and hours with all programs for the hour you have chosen.
Here in Quebec, we have Tvhebdo.com that have in frame a complete guide for the region and hour you want.
Or why not let us set what page you want for the tv guide? We are not all on USA ?

An Electronic Programming Guide (EPG) would be a nice addition to MC.

Amen.
What I dont get is why NONE of these programs that show TV, including MC, pick up Teletext just like a normal TV does to pull the information from that?
I dont think you have it in the US but MC is an international program notjust a US one. :(

Are you saying you do not get teletext even if you turn "Closed Captioning" option on?
