Internet Explorer 6 - Windows XP Service Pack 2 - Change Pop-up Blocker Filter Level

SUMMARY: Filter more or less pop-up windows with Internet Explorer 6 and Windows XP Service Pack 2.

Normally, Internet Explorer 6 is configured to allow some pop-up windows to appear, especially if they are user-initiated (a pop-up appearing after clicking a button or a link). If you'd rather increase Internet Explorer 6's pop-up window blocking sensitivity to block even more windows, do the following:

1. From Internet Explorer 6, Click "Tools".
2. Select "Pop-Up Blocker".
3. Select "Pop-up Blocker Settings".
4. When the "Pop-up Blocker Settings" dialog box appears, under "Filter Level", click the pull-down and choose "High".
5. Press "Close" to close the dialog box.
