MessageHi Mark

I think it's something to do with BT Yahoo having extra pop ups as I've done 
all the cookies and pop up block stuff. I just need to find out how to get rid 
of the yahoo pop up window. 

Thanks a lot.

  Hi Wendy,

  I must admit i'm a little stumpped by this one. Did you add the URL of the 
site you're trying to download from to the popup stopper's exceptions?

  As for enabling cookies, you do this by going to tools, Internet Options, and 
choosing the 'Privacy tab. Once here, do ALT + V for the Advanced dialog. Here, 
make sure the checkbox marked "override automatic Cookie Handling" is checked. 
Tab once from here, and make sure this Radio button is set to 'Accept. You 
should be okay with leaving everything else set up as it is for now, so Tab to 
okay and press spacebar. Do the same in the next dialog, and you should then be 
returned to where you started before entering the tools menu.

  If you need more details on navigating the multi-tab dialog in Internet 
options, just let me know.

  Cheers,

  Mark

  Hi Mark

  Thanks for this. I tried everything to do with pop up blocker to no avail so 
then attempted to download Real1 Player which I need to listen.

  I'm now getting a message saying that my cookies need to be enabled in order 
for me to download it but can't seem to find how to do this anywhere. All pop 
ups are blocked.

  Do you or anyone else have any ideas?

  Thanks a lot.

  Wendy

    Hmm Wendy - ah i think i know what's happening here now. Perhaps what you 
need to do is go into the popup blocker settings, and add the URL. To do this, 
go into the Popup blocker as you did earlier. Once in this sub-menu, arrow down 
to the settings dialog. Tab to the field which allows you to enter an address, 
and type it in. Next, Tab next to the Add button, or hit ALT A. Finally, Tab to 
'Close, and hit enter. Note i found you have to re-start, or at least re-start 
IE for the new settings to take effect.

    Thinking about it though, if you've disabled the blocker, then it should be 
allowing them anyway. However i guess its possible you need to again - restart 
the browser.

    Try adding the address though and see what happens, and maybe it'd be as 
well to enable the blocker again. HTH

    Cheers,

    Mark

    Hi Mark

    Thanks for this. When I click to listen it gives me an audible sound and 
then returns to the link asking me to listen again. I went into the jaws cursor 
and that's where it said that a pop up window was blocked but it didn't ask me 
to OK it and I could get no more information about it. Do I need to go into the 
pop up blocks sub-menu again in Internet Explorer even though I've turned pop 
up blocker off or should I be going somewhere else.

    Thanks a lot.

      Hi Wendy,

      you need to access the Information bar. Once you've okayed the dialogue 
informing you the pop-up has been blocked, press ALT + N to access it. Next, 
use your arrow keys to arrow through the choices.

      If this for some reason doesn't work, we'll maybe look into your IE 
security settings. HTH

      Cheers,

      Mark

      Hi all

      I'm trying to listen to a Radio 4 programme via the internet but each 
time I try to listen a message comes up saying that a pop up window was 
blocked. I've been into tools and turned pop up blocker off but it doesn't seem 
to work.

      Does anyone have any ideas?

      Thanks.

      Wendy Dundas
