Solve : Re-enabling pop-up windows in internet? |
|
Answer» When I "cleaned" my computer last January, many pop-up windows were blocked. Unfortunately, sometimes I need to get into a certain pop-up window. I was signing up for a dental plan today and could not print my cards or enrollment info as they were a pop-up window. Can anyone help me on how to re-enable pop-up windows. I have Windows 2000. Thank you.What BROWSER are you using? What browser are you using?Make sure java script is enabled. If you are using Sun Java, make sure it is checked in internet OPTIONS/advanced.Did you install some sort of blocking software? Something from your ISP maybe?Time to switch to Firefox. Switching to Firefox would help However, if you must use IE, you may want to use IE7 instead of IE 6 As for popups in IE6, there should be a little icon at the bottom on the right side, looks like a little window with a stop sign on it, which indicates if popups are being blocked There should also be a bar bat the top saying "popup blocked. To SEE this popup or additional options click here..." Click the bar and select "always allow popups from this site" Click yes in the dialog box Now you should get all popups from the site you are on If you need to remove sites from the allow list, go to Internet Options, then the privacy tab, and popup options are at the bottom of the window Hope this helpsXP only Calum, musiclover has W2K.Sorry about that, I thought it would work the same with IE6 regardless of operating system I didn't realise it was different SorryI used a "registry cleaner" that included stopping pop-ups. I was hoping I could go BACK into it, and do something in reverse - ha, ha! Quote Did you install some sort of blocking software?

When I can do it, I will upgrade to either IE7 or Firefox. I'll just try to work around it right now. Thanks for taking the time. Cheers. :-/ Quote Sorry about that, I thought it would work the same with IE6 regardless of operating systemTry setting IE back to its defaults. 1. START 2. Settings 3. Control Panel 4.
