i am using windows ME and i have a pop-up blocker so i think, but i cant get in to any websites that i want like pogo.com i wuz woundering how to get it off
If u are using internet explorer look for the icon of that pop up blocker on the tool bar of Internet exlorer and modify the changes as necessary. Orelese look for that program in the control panel and uninstall it. I wud recommend u to download Avant browser which is a very nice browser with an inbuilt pop up blocker and other cool features.

You have to be careful with setting up rules for pop up blockers.
if you find a particularly annoying ad that keeps coming back with slightly different messages you might be tempted to use the asterisk (meaning all) in the rule line.
if you use Advertisement* it blocks it blocks everything with starting with advertisement. if you do this: * Advertisement * it can block all adds including all site connections. it makes no difference if they are padded with space or not.

shawn0, some stoppers are better than others. Try pressing Ctrl at the same time and see if it will allow you to access something you wanna see. Worked for me 'till I got rid of Pop Up Stopper and replaced it with another that didn't require it. HTH. Ed in Texas.
