How to remove login popups

I'm sure you saw at least one site where you have to log in to see the content. Today I clicked on a link from Lance Armstrong's twitter account and I got a nasty popup on top of the page.
Here are the steps to get rid of this popup and view the page without loging in (for this tutorial I used Firefox with Firebug, but you can do this in all browsers):

1. open Firebug
2. select the popup div (in this case mobli_dialog)
3. hide the div (display:none)
4. select the overlay div (in this case pop_overlay)
5. hide the overlay
It only takes a few seconds to access the information without logging in or creating an account :)
