My pop-up blocker seems to block ME :eek: 99% of the time and the infamous “them” only 1% of the time. Have others noticed this to be true? And if so, is there a factual reason why? What can I do about it?
There are multiple ways that a new window/tab can be made to “pop up”.
Here’s a couple of sites that test how well your blocker works,

CMC +fnord!
BTW What browser/blocker are you using?
Hold the Ctrl key down when clicking on a link. That defeats the pop-up software.

IE popup blocker has a frustrating maze of options. Temporarily allow, allow all from this site, all just this one, and way down a contorted options tree is block all. But when you do that, you can’t even click on the Post Go Advanced link.
They really aren’t done inventing it yet.

I use Firefox, and they DO appear to be done inventing it on that browser.
Between Firefox itself & Adblock, I am almost never troubled by popups.
