My Opera Web Browser – Just Another Reason To Love It!
I just love Opera, and over the weekend I found another reason to be glad it's installed on my PC. On Friday I was working at a very well known site (whose name you would all recognize!) To my aggravation and annoyance, a pop up window opened about every 30 seconds. In fact, often multiple popups opened. What especially aggravated me is that I was working at a control panel that I PAY for – it wasn't even a freebie area of the site!
So I opened my preferences menu and chose “Block all pop-ups”. Yeah! Success! No more irritating, annoying popups.
The next morning, though, I was managing a program and it wouldn't work. I couldn't understand why because I've done it many times with no problem. When my tech appeared he immediately checked my popups menu and told me that was the problem.
Instead of blocking ALL pop-ups I can choose “Block unwanted popups”.
Perfect! No popups that I don't want – but popups appear when I want them!
Apparently, though, all browsers don't have this option. For most of them, popups are either “on” or “off”. Just another reason to love Opera.
