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.

Click here for 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.
