Questions and Answers / bypass doesn't work with IE6 & Win XP
« on: July 11, 2002, 02:16:24 PM »
Thanks for the replies and the welcome. And thank you Scott for the tip on how to add the animation to my bypass list. I had tried to do that before without success. However, my mistake was in adding the url of the page as opposed to the actual picture itself, as you suggested. Trying it your way worked like a charm.

Bypass finally started working. Don't know why it wouldn't work the first 5-6 times. I even tried rebooted between the first 3 and the last 3 attempts. I guess the seventh time was the charm. I remember back when doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result was a sure sign of insanity - that was before computers came along.
          Thanks for the reply though -- Gil Theissen

Questions and Answers / bypass doesn't work with IE6 & Win XP

I recently upgraded from IE 5.5 and Win98 to WinXP and IE6. Previously been using Proxo 4.1 and loved it. Only problem was to get animated (vs. still picture) radar coverage at http://wwwa.accuweather.com/adcbin/local_radar.asp?, I had to use the 'bypass' option for Proxo. Now, with IE6 and XP, bypass doesn't seem to work. The green triangle changes color, but I can't get the map to animate. A friend of mine had the same problem with ver. 4.3 , IE6 and WinMe but up until now I didn't think anything about it. Anyone have a fix for me?

Block List Files / blocking popup ads

   I found the problem. User error - me. In Internet Options, I had "automatically detect settings" enabled. This disabled my "use proxy server" command. Once I unchecked "automatically detect settings" and rechecked "use proxy server" everything now works fine.
   Thanks for your help --   Gil Theissen

Arne:
   Thanks very much, but for my system (Win98, IE 5.5) "Kill Nosey Javasctipts" only killed the enter popup, and not the exit popup. Any more ideas?
   Also, could you  tell me why adding the url to the blocklist didn't work or what I was doing wrong?
                        Thanks very much -- Gil Theissen

Block List Files / blocking popup ads

Hello:
   I'm a novice and can't figure out how to block  certain popups which  appear, but then immediately take you to another destination with a different url (the advertiser).
 After many attempts (because the first url disappears so fast) I finally got the initial url and it comes from "adminder.com". So I went there to experiment (www.adminder.com). There, they have both an enter popup (www.adminder.com/popups/enterpop.shtml) and an exit popup (www.adminder.com/popups/exitpop.shmtl). I tried to block both by adding  "www.adminder.com/popups/" in  "Add to Blockfile" > "Adlist" >"Url to add" but it wouldn't work. I aslo tried just (www.adminder.com/) but that didn't work either. What am I doing wrong?
                             Thanks -- Gil Theissen
