The first link leads to a page that says "Flash 9 Required" and "Turn Off Your Browser’s Popup Blocker For Full Access To Glide’s Features". This kind of stuff will certainly attract a lot of Linux users :~(

That is an issue.

Did you try emailing the relevant webmaster? You could explain that many Linux power users disable popups and Flash in their browsers and that it is important to create websites that work without these things.
