Hi Terry! My pop-up blocker sounds off everytime I first log on. I never think to turn it off just to find out what the deal is. Get your, (as Vortex Joe would say) bohunkous  on 160. I'm on a DX-100 for now but expect to have some strong cajones soon.

Hi Mike, Terry,

Interesting, my browser(Firefox) does not so a popup alarm when I log in. I wonder what is triggering the program. I wonder what  your browser is reacting to.

Some people have reported their pop up notofication comes up when a private message window tries to open. If you have private messages that window will open as soon as you connect.

If either of you feel brave I would be interested in what  your browsers are blocking.

Thanks

If you have a Private Message waiting, you will get a pop-up notification when you log in. Most browsers allow you to turn off the pop up blocking for desired sites. Turn it off for amfone.net and you're golden
