Pop-up blocking functions are included in some anti-virus, internet security, personal firewall, and browser programs. Some common software that provides pop-up blocking functions include:
- Zone Alarm Pro
- Google Toolbar
- Yahoo! Toolbar
- MSN Toolbar
- AOL 8.0 and later
- Safari browser
- Microsoft Windows XP, Service Pack 2
- ICQ Toolbar
- Mozilla browser
- Netscape browser
- Firefox browser
- Norton Internet Security
- McAfee Internet Security Suite
In particular, the Norton and McAfee products have been known to be able to by-pass our pop-up blocker detector. It would allow certain pop-ups from the application( e.g. discussions) but not others (e.g. mail).
Users will need to disable the relevant setting in the program or set program to allow pop-ups from the UNI eLearning server (lms.uni.edu).
