How do I allow Pop Ups

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

I've unchecked the pop up blocker on the privacy tab of IE properies but
still all pop ups are still blocked. Even if I specify to allow a particular
website it still blocks pop ups! please help...

The pop ups only seem to be blocked when the non-administrator user accounts
are logged on. I'm the administrator but haven't to my knowledge set any
restrictions! I'm only using the XP firewall. I get the band across the
bottom to say they are blocked but next to them is an icon which says pop ups
are not blocked! Disabled script debugging is checked however

Have you got a pop up blocker control under your Tool options? Just a
thought because I have.
