I'm not sure which pop up blocker you're are speaking of, and not sure what exactly you turned off in Internet options?

Could you explain a little more so we can help you.

With IE7 and XP SP2, I can go to Tools when open with IE and the Pop Up Blocker designation is second line - Turn On or Off.

Mine's off, because I have another program (not free) that blocks all pop ups even more effectively - but I'm curious as to why you want yours off. They are so annoying....

Either your pump is not pushing any water, (probably because it lost its prime) or you have a broken line somewhere. If its a broken line, let it run awhile. You will get a very wet spot. That's where the break is.

Mark, thank you, I hope....after going to the site you wrote about, I think I have opt outed of 96 companies that were advertising. 96! Hopefully this will continue to work...I did have to allow third party cookies, hope this doesn't open a new can of worms???? Thanks, I do not miss the killer rapper guy. Edited to say....NEVERMIND!!!! I'm still getting the ads. After checking out 3 threads and seeing zero ads, they were back on the fourth.

Japanese knot weed. They will spread like crazy and can grow up to 6ft I think. I also read that once you rip them out do not lay on the ground but rather into a bag or trash can because it will spread particles? and re grow in that area. They are really difficult to get rid of
