Hi,

I'm running XP Pro and IE6 and am pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to disable a popup blocker. I didn't install it and have no idea how it got on my system. Here's the URL that I'm entering...


... which should give me a popup window, but I get a blank screen. When I view the source:

<!-- BEGIN Popup Blocker -->
<script language='javascript'>
NS_ActualOpen=window.open;
function NS_NullWindow(){this.window;}
function NS_NewOpen(url,nam,atr){return(new NS_NullWindow());}
window.open=NS_NewOpen;
</script>
<!-- END Popup Blocker -->
<html>
<head>
<script LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
function MsgBox(url) {
SiteBuilderInfo=window.open(&quot;&quot;+url+&quot;&quot;,&quot;SiteBuilderInfo&quot;,&quot;scrollbars=1, toolbar=0, status=0, menubar=0, rezisable=0, location=0, directories=0, width=495,height=340&quot;);
SiteBuilderInfo.document.close();
}
</script>
</head>
<BODY></body><script> window.open=NS_ActualOpen; </script>
<script> window.open=NS_ActualOpen; </script>
<script> window.open=NS_ActualOpen; </script>
</html>

I tried Netscape -- same thing. Any ideas, clues, advice? I'm stuck and quickly going bald.

Thanks!

I'm having this problem too. This time I can't even view the source of the page, and it only happens in IE for me, but i hate netscape and msn, i want to use IE. Somebody please reply to this... its been here too long.

I seem to remember seeing this in ZoneAlarm 3.X - have you got this running?

No, I had downloaded Stop-Sign that came along with a Virus Defender and even though I got rid of the program, pop ups still don't work.

I thought for sure I had shut down ZoneAlarm and tested the URL and got the same response...but apparently not! I shut it down, and up popped the pop-up. I went into ZA and unchecked the box and Voila! Popups.

Problem solved, and I still have some hair left -- many thanks Madonnac!
