PrefBar stopped a pop Up now does not ?

Post by welikeme »

One Pop Up was stopped because aa dialog told me; very nice but, now I get pop Ups and there
is no intervention. I have tried checking and unchecking the popups box. Any ideas?
Thanks.

About what?

You don't even include information about what version of Phoenix you use.
Popup blockin works just fine for me with
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021204 Phoenix/0.4

Phoenix v0.5 PrefBar PopUp Problem

Post by welikeme »

Sorry, I use win98SE and soon after Prefbar install I got a message a popup was stopped; yet as I visited other sites
I got more popups w/out messages nor interception. So I tried checking & unchecking box aat popups but nothing
changed. as popups continued. Any ideas on what is wrong? Does a check in box enable popup intercept?
Thank You :)

Perhaps it's a bug in prefbar?

Try again with a clean install and profile.

Popups

Post by welikeme »

Hey Stefen; So how do I do a re-install of prefbar and maintain profiles ? If Prefbar did not install right the first time then how do I correct this ? Pls list steps I need to take. Plus, are boxes enabled when blank or when checked?
Thank You.

You don't.
My post as about you testing if you get the same bug WITHOUT the prefbar addon and also with a compleatly clean/new profile.

If you can't reprodiuce the bug in those circumstances then the bug isn't in Phoenix but in the prefbar code OR your old profile.
