Why am I no longer getting a pop up to tell me when I have one?

Have you checked your profile settings, dear?

I had a look and there's something about 'some' templates giving you a pop-up - perhaps 'some' means that different PCs do different things?

Anyway, get on and do some work and stop winding ecm up while Dada's on his hols and you can't wind him up!!

Thanks but I did look t hat. Its either caused by this new skin or Alex's Firefox. If its the latter I will do without the pop ups. Firefox is brill.

I don't know ;O

Anyway, SP2 will have hit a lot of folk via automatic updates in the past month and the coming months. Stops RBS online banking on its default config.

The pop-ups only work with Internet Explorer.

And yes, the pop-up blocker on XP SP2 is way too aggressive. I've turned mine off, and I'm still relying on Google's pop-up blocker, which is far better.
