1. Why does not Zero Popup run when I start IE 5.00?

3. What can I do if Zero Popup blocks a new browser window to open in Outlook, or an Instant Message?

In general Zero Popup should allow a new browser window to open when you click a link in email or chat. If it doesn't, you can always hold down the CTRL key (or the Shift key) and click on the link to bring up the new browser window.

4. How can I allow some web sites to display popup windows?

Right click the Zero Popup icon and select "Blocked Popups" to "Add Link to White List" or "Add Site to White List". For example, when "http://www.xyz.com/product/index.htm" is selected, "Add Link to White List" means the full link. "Add Site to White List" means "http://www.xyz.com".

Right click the Zero Popup icon and select "White List" to add web site allowing popup window. When you add a web site, you should specify the full name of the web site. For example, you should specify a web site as "www.xyz.com" or "investment.xyz.com" rather than simply "xyz.com".  Then Zerop Popup will then have a fine filter to control the popups.
