Michael,
 
You haven't checked a box by mistake have you? Go into the view menu,
explorer bar and see if the media is checked...

        Hi folks,
         
        Can someone help please. Over the last few days what appears to
be an advertisment keeps interfering by coming onto my screen when I try
to go onto any web page that I choose to surf. Jaws says New browser
window, followed by Bullseye network offer. But when my wife looks at
the screen it appears to be blank, although she thinks the information
on the page has been blocked by my Norton personal firewall. But what I
want to know is if it blocks all the info on the page why has it allowed
the page to come in at all?
         
        It's interfering with every website that I enter onto, and I am
forever doing alt+F4 each time this happens, it is very annoying and
frustrating.
         
        My wife says the header line says Oas-central.realmedia.com but
jaws just says bullseye network offer and nothing else.
         
        I use Jaws 4.51 with X P Home. I have Norton Internet Security
2004 installed on my system, which includes a personal firewall and anti
virus programs.
         
        My wife says that on the Internet Security options page all
protective options are checked including "detect intrusion"or something
like that.
         
        This has only started occuring two or three days ago.
         
        The only thing I can think of which I have done different about
this time, is that I have downloaded an E Book from Project Guttenberg
in M P 3 format into My Documents. Could that have something to do with
it?
         
        I just don't know, as I am not proficient enough to understand
these technicalities.
         
        If someone can help I would be eternally grateful.
         
        Thanks for any help,
         
        Michael Brown.
