How can I choose to allow pop-ups from a specific website?

 

By default, Internet Explorer displays pop-ups that appear as a result of you clicking a link or button. Pop-up Blocker blocks pop-ups that are displayed automatically (without you clicking a link or button). If you want to allow a specific website to display automatic pop-ups, follow these steps:

 

1. In Internet Explorer, click the Tools button, click Pop-up Blocker, and then click Pop-up Blocker Settings.

 

2. In the Address of website to allow box, type the address (or URL) of the website you want to see pop-ups from, and then click Add.

 

3. Repeat step 2 for every website you want to allow pop-ups from. When you are finished adding websites, click Close.
