Hi Tictoc -

I thnk I know this one.

In IE,

1 - click on Tools
2 - click on internet options
3 - click on the advanced tab
4 - scroll down to the "security" section
5 - check the setting that says "Allow active content to run in files on My Computer".

Close the IE window and try it now.

The problem actually isn't the "pop-up blocker", but a security setting. I remember it taking me a long time to find this option.
