>>Can anyone tell me how to get rid of an extremely annoying pop-up blocker that pops up at my bottom RH corner, sometimes several times, for MOST URLs I try to access? These include most the URLs cited here. Even if I hold the ALt key they still persist. Even if I turn off the Windows blocker. I can't seem to find out what controls this. Mostly I have to retry the URL several times before it will let me through. Does my head in!

Yes, IE. There is also a BT Internet browser on board (that I got with my phone/broadband package) that I don't use. It has its own blocker but I didabled that, thinking it might be somehow interfering, but this makes no difference.
