I cant open pop-up windows


Recommended Posts

Posted

When I click on links that are pop-up windows--I think its javascript, lately, my computer won't open it. The window will just disappear in a split second. Its not a pop-up blocker thing because I was able to open the windows w/ MSN explorer before it went retarded on me. Im using IE, by the way. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Have you replaced your Hosts file in your Windows folder? Or have you uninstalled a pop-up stoper recently? I had a problem like this before when I uninstalled a pop-up killer which left me unable to open any windows. I fixed it by going to my control panel and restoring IE default settings. If not I wish you luck because I know it sucks. :(

Go to Sun.com and try reinstalling Java if you think that is the problem.

 

You can also try repairing IE through the Add/Remove Programs option in the Control Panel.

Where in the control panel do you restore the default settings?

Try downloading Spybot Search & Destroy... I had a problem with adware that made it impossible to open pop up windows, to the point where it would crash internet explorer. This program eliminated those problems. Search for it on Google.
