Pop-up
« on: February 04, 2005, 06:16:43 PM »

I cannot have a service by my ISP because my AV blocks the popup windows (I'm told....) . Does Avast do this action ?
Thanks a lot.

avast! doesn't block pop-up windows, unless of course there were infected and you had the settings set to do this.

Firewalls, Browsers and third party utilities block pop-ups, check you settings.

A little more information wouldn't go amiss, like what service is it you are trying to get and why would it need a pop-up?

What version of avast, OS and browser are you using?
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.3.6108 (build 24.3.8975.762) UI 1.0.801/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security

It's a local service to have a web  space and to register  my data some pop up windows are used.

You can stop firefox blocking pop-ups.

So it is a little like geocities that have pop-up ads to support free webspace.

If you are using the standard settings in avast! it shouldn't block pop-ups.
