How to Manage Pop-Up Blocker in Windows 7?
Pop-up blocker is designed to eliminate the irritation that is created when unnecessary windows are popped up while you are surfing the Internet. Microsoft did this for the noble cause however in some cases pop-up blocker might become a real pain in the neck as there are few websites which allow users to interact through pop-up windows only. When this is the case users need to disable pop-up blocker in order to use the pop-up window initiated by those particular sites. With the advanced feature in Internet Explorer users can now create an exception list to specify the sites from which pop-up windows should be allowed. You can manage this nature of pop-up blocker and create pop-up exception list by following the steps given below:
- Logon to the computer.
