QUESTION: How does pop-up blocking work?

ANSWER:

Once initiated, StealthRay's Pop-Up Blocker shuts down all pop-up windows throughout an Internet session. By default, the Pop-Up Blocker makes a slight sound when it zaps a window. That way, the user will know if the browser has attempted to launch a new window. If so desired, this sound effect may be altered. Alternatively, the sound effects can be disabled, and the Pop-Up Blocker will operate in silence.

The Pop-Up Blocker stops all* pop-up browser windows, not just the unwelcome and intrusive advertisements. However, if a browser command demands a new window to open, the Pop-Up Blocker can be bypassed by holding down the "ctrl" key when the command is initiated. For example, if a hyperlink requires a new browser window to display its contents, the user can circumvent the blocker by holding down the "ctrl" key while clicking that link.

* Certain pop-up windows are crucial to Internet browsing. Therefore, the Pop-Up Blocker by default allows a limited number of pop-up windows to appear, including Web site security alerts. As an advanced option, other Web titles can be added to the list of allowed pop-up windows.
