How to ENABLE pop-ups in Win XP Home.

[PeterM]

How do I enable pop-up's again. I can't get to my work website. I need to
get my work done tonight. I have Norton Antivirus :-( and partially Norton
System Works :-( and Zone Alarm 5
I thought that I enabled a pop-up blocker somewhere in Win xp, but can't
remember where. I appreciate any help, this senior citizen is lost
again..........Peter

I just discovered that my grandson installed a Yahoo address bar, he
communicates with his friends this way, chatting or something like that, so
I noticed that there was a pop-up blocker there, I disabled it just so I can
get my work done, and it worked. I don't even use Yahoo, and he was not on
line, and the damn thing blocked the pop-ups. Live and learn. Thanks for the
help in any event............Peter

beware of spyware and crap that children get on your 'work'
system. or better yet let them use their own computer at
home and quit installing junk on grandpa's computer.

I totally agree with you, but this 14 year old 6.1 200 lb grandson of ours,
lives with us in the summer. I have no control over this unless I get mean,
and I can't stop him from doing things on my computer. I do agree with you,
but like I said, I probably have to do a lot of work to the computer when he
leaves. I already decided to buy him his own computer when he comes next
time. The nice part is that he's very bright and no matter what I do on my
computer, he knows how to get around it. Nothing malicious or dirty
though...........Thanks for the comments..............Peter
