Disable Pop-Up Blockers

Pop-up blockers WILL stop certain items in ANGEL from not being displayed (taking tests, adding attachments to drop-boxes or email, using the HTML Editor to add images, etc.)

Pop-up blockers work in the background while you browse the Internet.  When they detect a pop-up window that may be an unwanted advertisement, they automatically close the window. This can prevent ANGEL from performing properly.

The list of software with pop-up blocking capability grows constantly, so it is impossible to give comprehensive instructions that will work for all programs all the time.  Here are some tips that may help.

Pop-up blocking functions are included in some anti-virus, Internet security, personal firewall, and browser programs. Disable the relevant setting in the program. 

To disable pop-up blockers for ANGEL:

Launch your browser.  On the menu bar click View -> Toolbars.  Any browser toolbars (AOL, Google, MSN, etc.) should be listed there.  A check mark beside a toolbar name means that controls for the toolbar are visible in your browser.  If a toolbar is not visible, click beside the toolbar name to make it visible.

Below is a list of popular programs with pop-up blocking capability, along with tips for managing them from your toolbars.  If you clicked View->Toolbars and no toolbars were listed, click Tools on your browser menu bar.  If you see Pop-up blocker listed look for the sub-menu to turn it on or turn off.

Internet Explorer: 
To disable this feature, click on the Tools menu on Internet Explorer.  Then click Internet Options.  Select the Privacy Tab.  Uncheck the checkbox next to Block pop-ups.  Click the Apply button.  Click the OK button.

Double Click the Norton Icon
Click "Ad Blocking"
Click "Turn Off" 

Google Toolbar:
Click on the Google Icon and click "Options."
In the Accessories Section deselect "Pop-Up Blocker."

Click on the "Pop-Up" Icon
Deselect "Enable Pop-Up Blocker."  If this button does not appear in the Yahoo Toolbar, click the pencil icon.

On Internet Explorer, this installs a separate toolbar.  Look for the icon that resembles a window.  If you see an "x" is in that window, pop-ups are being blocked.  Press the button and pop-ups will be allowed.

Place your mouse pointer over the Pop-Up Icon.  If the message says "Pop-Up windows are being blocked, click to allow all pop-ups" then you should click on it.
