Hi Andrew :-)

You don't mention the version of Windows you are using, which really is a
must when asking for help in the newsgroups,but, try the following as it may
apply
to your OS and see if it helps:

If you have Google, turn *off* the Advanced Options. Do not allow Google to
take over as your search engine. If you have MSN or Yahoo toolbars, disable
them. If you have Yahoo Companion, uninstall it. If you have any 3rd party
software, popup or ad blockers, disable them.

Window pop ups will not open even if allowed.


When I tell IE to allow pop up a site like this one, will not even show.
Another problem I have seen, when I hold the shift key to open the link in
a
new window, nothing happens. I can see IE loose focus but then it regain
focus. Like a window was opening, but then closed.

I have no other pop up preventing software on this computer. I have the
same
virus software on all my computers I manage at work and they all work
fine.

Does any body have any ideas on how to fix this, or how can I uninstall
IE,
and install a fresh copy?
