Guest Crux Report post Posted July 29, 2003 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?

{''({o..o})''} 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2003 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MrRant Report post Posted July 29, 2003 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Tyler McClelland Report post Posted August 6, 2003 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.
