Pop Up Blocker

[Herman]

I am using the final version of Windows Live One care. After installing this
program, I have noticed that the pop -up blocker does not work properly,
with the setting in IE-7 even at the highest level.
Before Live One Care I used the Norton 2006 firewall, which has a built in
pop-up blocking facility and which does a real good job. Apparantly this is
not the case with the XP firewall which Live One Care is using.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Do you have any other pop-up blockers installed? (toolbars for example)
Is there one particular site giving you the most pop-ups or is it an across
the board issue?
Another questions is if it's a java pop-up or are these pop-up opening when
you don't even open IE? - You may need to run an ADware program like AdaWare
or SpyBot.

I don't have One Care installed but I am using IE7 w/ the Google tool bar
and it works great for all pop-ups.
The reason I ask if it's one site in particular is because that site might
be in your 'safe zone'.

Thanks for your reply. The particular site was indeed in the "trusted zone".
Problem has been solved. (I should have read the FAQ on the pop up
blocker....)
