Temp Files, Cookies, Cache and Pop-Up Blockers - How To

[TheTexan]

Pop Up Blocker

Depending on the system and browser you are using how you access the pop-up blocker may vary. In dealing with specifically Windows XP and Internet Explorer you can access the pop-up blocker through Tools, Internet Options, Privacy and at the bottom is the section to adjust the pop-up blocker.

Make sure you have, or add the following links:


onlinepoker66.com
play.onlinepoker66.com
game.onlinepoker66.com
admin.instantservice.com
instantservice.com
client11.addonchat.com
addonchat.com

Also if it is not set so, select "Show Information Bar When Pop-up Blocked". This will display an information bar that will allow you to add a new item to the allowed list if it is blocked.

EDIT - If the Filter Level is set to high, then pop ups will still be blocked, even those on the allowed sites list.
It needs to be set to medium for the system to allow pop ups from the allowed sites list. - Thanks to Fozzy for the clarification.

The pop up blocker settings are not quite complete. If the Filter Level is set to high, then pop ups will still be blocked, even those on the allowed sites list.

It needs to be set to medium for the system to allow pop ups from the allowed sites list.

Clicking the offline content will just help clean up your system. It won't affect data and programs on your computer and it won't stop you going to any website you wish.

for the past 24 hours i have been unable to get into the op66 site to play poker..
when i get to the homepage and click on "Click here to Play Poker" tab, i get timed-out every single time..
I have uninstalled flash player and java, and also allowed pop-ups for this site..

please can you tell me if this is a problem currently being encountered by everyone else, if not can you suggest remedial action for me...it is really frustrating as i cannot play on this site, which i much prefer to all other poker sites...

p.s i've tried the steps on your technical forum, (pop-up blocker,filters etc) and i still cant get in....thru firefox or internet explorer!!!!

many thanks keithbroadford...table name nando21..

Hi there,
dont know if this is the right place to put this, i'm having a little trouble browsing through the forum to find where it should go for the following reason:
each page i try to open on here is taking up to 20 seconds to load, is this how it is for all users? all of my other internet surfing is fine so it seems to be just this site. is this normal? or is it just my PC?

No it is not your machine, and no this is not normal. Based on traffic it seems that it is running a little slower. Please be patience while we check out the drag on resources.

Thanks
