why can't my new computer get into yahoo games? something to do with pop up blockers?

Answer 1

here are things you need to do to get into games.
When you try getting in lounge or room and it doesn't work. click on pop up blocker on yahoo tool bar. On the drop down list click on Always allow tab it will say recent pop ups blocked. high light yahoo.com then click allow. This is the proper way to use the pop up blocker, I have never had a problem or had to hold any keys down to get in.1st thing you do when you get in lounge is check small windows in options box. Once in room make sure you expand it to see chat area. This also gets rid of the big ads. IE browser settings to allow pop ups Right click on IE icon ,properties, privacy tab, cookie over ride. Type in Yahoo.com, allow then ok.

I have no problem getting into” ANY” game using these settings. make the changes then log onto mail, minimize it then go to game.
Yahoo games and sun java have conflicts. Rather then trying to work around them. Here is the easy and fastest way to cure them. These simple setting changes will fix 95% of all Yahoo messenger and yahoo game problems.

Make sure JIT is checked, click apply then ok. Close. This lets msn virtual machine launch yahoo messenger and games. If MSN VM is not listed you can download it here. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/virtualserver/default.mspx
