I am using Windows XP Home with Internet Explorer 6 and SP2.

With some user-initiated pop-ups, all I get is a blank browser window. The
place where I am particularly interested in getting this to work is
http://www.telecharge.com. When I click on the button to buy tickets, I get
this message: "There is already a session of the Online Box Office in use or
you may have pop-ups blocked on your computer. To launch the Online Box
Office, you must first close the current session or disable your pop-up
blocker."

This happens on other sites too such as reviewing my update history at
microsoftupdate. When I click on the particular update, all I see is "print"
and "close" in the upper right hand corner of the window.

Now to make things complicated. This is what I've tried:

turning off the pop-up blocker.
exiting McAfee Security Center and McAfee Virus Scan
reinstalling the java plug-in from Sun
re-registering various dll's
Urlmon.dll, Mshtml.dll, Actxprxy.dll, Oleaut32.dll, Shell32.dll, Shdocvw.dll
making http://www.telecharge.com a trusted site
making https://www.telecharge.com a trusted site
switching java machines between Microsoft and Sun

Has anyone seen or solved this problem?
What else can I try that might work?

Thanks,

Ben

It's more possible that your scripting engine is failing - with all pop-up
blockers active on this machine (IE's and Google's), I have no problems wit
that ticket site.
try reinstalling the engine

Good suggestion, but reinstalling the scripting engine didn't help.

Do you have another suggestion?

Solved my own problem. It was an unregistered dll. See

or

Thanks for your help, Noel and anyone else who thought about my problem.
