How Do You Remove Pop-Up Windows In Internet Explorer?
Although some pop-ups are used for helpful purposes, such as the installation of a browser plug-in or the display of a website maintenance message, most users associate pop-ups with unwanted advertisements and find them an annoyance. For this reason, Microsoft Internet Explorer allows users to adjust pop-up settings to meet their unique needs. Disabling pop-up window functionality is a quick and easy task in all versions of the program. Open an Internet Explorer browser window. Click “Tools” in the top menu bar and then select “Pop-up Blocker.” Choose the “Pop-up Blocker Settings” option from the resulting sub-menu. Locate the drop-down menu near the bottom of the Settings screen labeled “Blocking level.” Click the menu and choose the option labeled “High: Block all pop-ups.” Click the “Close” button to confirm your settings changes and continue browsing with Internet Explorer.
