Well, I went into view and under tool bars and the yahoo option was
checked, I unchecked it and now things seem to be working, I have no
idea why.  I also have Norton internet security functions disabled.  Do
you know anything about the Norton internet security program?

check the view menu-tool bar to see if you have yahoo companion or
google tool bar checked.
if so, uncheck them.

Hi I was wondering if someone out there might be able to help me with a
problem I am having regarding certin links on various web pages.  For
instance I am trying to access the following link of online-catalog on
the www.perkinslibrary.org web site and I get a message which I can read
with jfw that says a pop up add has been blocked.  I am quite upset and
mystified because I have checked several settings which have to do with
pop blocking and they all seem to be off.  I am running windows xp
service pack 2, and have checked security and fire wall settings under
the control panel, and everything seems fine, I am also using Norton
internetsecurity and it seems to indicate all pop up blocking is off,
although I don't think jfw works very well with that application?
Another place I looked is under the tools menu in internet explorer
which appears to have a option for pop blocking.  If you have any ideas
on where else to look or what I can do to solve my problem please share
them.  Also If you have any thoughts on Norton internet security and jfw
please let me know what I can do to get it read well, or perhaps I
should not use that program.
