The hit counter loads on every page including the home page where most
people arrive from (not this thread's link). It also loads pretty fast. I
would agree if other designers we have worked with did not also report less
than 1% with JS disabled. When we researched it, it seemed a hotly debated
topic, with everyone quoting vastly different %s. So, ultimately we can
only go on our own statistics and those of programmers we trust and employ.

The windows work on every browser, and open as tabs in most. Don't know

Have already exhaustively explained it in this thread, but in a nutshell it
is aimed not at you but at the market who hate internet shopping but love
high streets. It is also aimed at the tourism angle for people who may
never get to visit famous streets such as 5th Avenue, but can now walk down
them.
