I don't get any pop up adds when I go to the page with the article but I have a pop up blocker active in Firefox, so that's probably why. I think you could just close the pop up and then read the article. However, you don't really need to read it - I just included the link because it was a good introduction to the Ephemeris. You can just go straight to the developer's website and download both Adobe Air and the Ephemeris. http://photoephemeris.com/ The download links are in the right hand panel of that page directly above the box headed "Follow TPE". I think Adobe Air is something like Java in that it allows development of cross platform applications. If you want to read the article and still can't get to it, let me know and I'll compile it to a pdf and send it to you.
