For Individual User

  1. How do I turn off Popup Blocker?
    Here are a few methods to help you find and disable your popup blocker(s).

    If you are running Windows XP Service Pack 2:

    1. Click the "Tools" menu at the top of the browser window
    2. You will see an option for popup blocker, click this option
    3. On the next screen you will see an option to turn off the popup blocker.

    You may be running 3rd party toolbars that have pop-up blocker features: Within your browser window just below the address bar, you may have some Toolbars installed, such as Google, Yahoo, MSN Search, My Search etc. You will have to find the option in each of these to disable the popup blockers. Note that it is possible to have more than one running so make sure to disable them all. You can right-click on the toolbars and you will see a list of toolbars that you have installed on your system. If there are listings that do not have a checkmark beside them and you think it could be a searching toolbar, put a checkmark beside it so it will show up in the browser. It will be easier to customize if the Toolbars are all visible.

    Firewalls can also contain popup blockers. To find these please go to the system tray which is the series of small icons by the clock in the Windows Taskbar. By passing the mouse cursor over each icon you will get a small box with a description of what the program is. If you have any that are firewalls (Ex: Norton Internet Security or Personal Firewall, McAfee Firewall, Zone Alarm, Freedom, Telus Security...) right click on the icon and choose the shut down or disable option. This option can be named different things depending on the particular program
