Disabling Pop-up blockers
When I try accessing QTAC's Online Services, I get a message saying "Your computer has a pop-up blocker". What should I do?
This message indicates you may be running a program such as 'AdZapper' or 'Pop-up killer' to block pop-up messages. These programs may prevent you from using QTAC's Online Services. You need to temporarily disable the program in order to access QTAC's Online Services. Instructions to do this are listed below for some of the common pop-up blockers:
Microsoft Windows XP - Pop-up Blocker
Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 contains an in-built pop-up blocker program. To put QTAC in the safe list and allow QTAC's Online Service to load, open Internet Explorer, select the Tools menu and then select Internet Options. Go to the Privacy tab and take note of the "Pop-up Blocker" section at the bottom of this screen. Click on the Settings button and add www.qtac.edu.au as the Address of Web Site to Allow. Click on the Refresh button in the toolbar before re-attempting to access QTAC's Online Services.
If you are running Internet Explorer 7, you should be able to turn the pop-up blocker on and off via the Privacy tab in Internet Options.
