my brother was over the house again mettling with this computer.
i think he like reloaded windows or something.

Anyway, I can't click on links. Webpages will load - but when I try to click on a link on the page like say to check out a LIW profile the 2nd window won't pop up like it normlly does.

Instead the Windows bar at top of the window (says LONG ISLAND WEDDINGS - MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER) just sought of flicks and doesn't do anything.

Is there anything I can do to get these pages to pop up?

I have a pop-up stopper but it is currently off.
thanks.

I think I figured it out......if your brother is all about computers, he probably tried to download this new program (it's the latest and greatest to spyware/adware, pop-ups, etc....). It's called STOPzilla.....my FH (who's a computer genius) downloaded this software the other day and we began to have the same problem with our main PC....it's just a thought---but the program affected all of the javascripting and html stuff on our computer--it took him a while to fix. If he's any good....I would just have your brother come over and fix whatever it is he did. I'm out of ideas for now. SOooooo sorry!!!

I can email you anything of true importance that you're looking for now though!! Just let me know.

Ya know...that sounds SO FAMILIAR!!!!
I think that's *exactly* what he did LOL...
everytime he comes over this house he fixes one thing and screw up another.
I can't win. But thanks SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH for trying to get me through this.
I'm just gonna call him tomorrow and go bridezilla on his arse.

thanks

A. it may seem java is off...(there is no way to download this. its in the service pack 1. (you should have service pack 2 installed) click on windows update.

B. once you get service pack 2 from step A, you will have Microsoft pop up block. Also get the goolge popup blocker... these are the only 2 things you need to combat popups (this is what i use.

good luck
