How to block a single .js file in ie6?

Question

Been banging my head on the desk for two hours now. I need to block JUST ONE .js file in ie6 (need to keep JS enabled in the browser):

http://php.net/ie6update/ie6update.js

That DARN script breaks my Zend Studio's internal browser or, if I enable JS in ie6, I get a nag popup message every time I look up a function from php.net.

I can't update to ie7,8,9 (long story).

EDIT: Thought about my HOSTS file, no-worky.

Answer 1

php.net uses the annoying ie6update.js script. You can block it from displaying with a custom user style sheet.

Create a .css file that contains:

#activebar-container { display: none !important; }

In Internet Explorer > Tools > Options > [General Tab] > Accessibility, tick the "Format documents using my style sheet" box and select the CSS file you created.

It won't stop the js from running, but you won't see the bar any more.

Answer 2

Head over to Tools -> Internet options. Click the Privacy tab, under the Privacy window, Click Sites -> Enter http://php.net/ie6update/ie6update.js -> Block.
