Hello all,
I have SM 2.4.1 running on Win XP SP3.
Here's something that's bugged me for a long while. I
thought eventually someone else would bring it up
and soon after, it would be fixed. Oh well.
Why is it SM no longer stops pop-ups?
When a page loads that has a pop-up, I have
assigned a "pop" sound and the highlighted
exclamation point shows on the bottom toolbar. But
then, if I should click anywhere on the page, the
pop-up will open into a new tab, instead of
remaining suppressed. This happens on almost all
websites that use pop-ups. (Oftentimes, they will
use Flash for these pop-ups, but the Flashblock
extension disables it, so it only shows the "F"
button.)
Is there anything I can change to prevent the
pop-ups from happening?
TIA.
You do not state whether you have Block unrequested popup windows
checked under your Privacy and Security preferences.
Are the offending popups Ads?
I don't have Flashblock installed, but do have AdBlock Plus installed
and never have a problem with unrequested popups.
