Guest K Hazen Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 I am using Vista Home Premium, and Internet Explorer, my computer is a HP notebook and about a year old. I am a subscriber to Nascar.com "Raceview". Last season I used it on my machine just fine. This season however the pop up page or screen won't work. it is a blank white page with the small X in the corner. I have corresponded quite a few times with their tech help desk and they gave me a few tips to try, like, installing new java, deleting cookies and adding nascar.com to safe list and still no luck. On the bottom of the page is the little eye with a red line going through it. When I click on that it gives me two things that are blocked. I clicked on them and clicked "allow" but they are still blocked. I went into my blocked sites and they are not there. I am assuming it's a security issue, can anyone help? Like I mentioned I did use it last season, so it is something new. I would appreciate any help. Thanks Quote

Guest Gerald309 Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 Have you tried: TIPS: Control Panel - Problem Reports and Solutions / Check For Solutions ..... Since product Customer Care indicates no Update needed in Vista compatibility, then the product is apparently up to date. Your security software may be blocking a hazardeous situation or potential one. Have you installed new security software -firewall, antivirus, antispyware ? Check allow settings if you trust this site. Online gaming can be dangerous or anything asking you to turn off security softwares to use it. Many times it is asked to turn off antivirus and the firewall to use the site. Don't do it. I wouldn't. Safer to play video poker at the bar. Never place anything but Windows Updates in Safe Zone settings in today's crimeware enviroment and website hackings - even legitimate businesses. Case in point not to long ago at Miami Superbowl gaming site hacked with password stealers and other financial accounts doing the ID Theft nine yards. gerald philly pa usa www.bluecollarpc.net On Jun 12, 10:27 am, "K Hazen" <kha...@wi.rr.com> wrote:<span style="color:blue"> > I am using Vista Home Premium, and Internet Explorer, my computer is a HP > notebook and about a year old.  I am a  subscriber to Nascar.com "Raceview". > Last season I used it on my machine just fine.  This season however the pop > up page or screen won't work.  it is a blank white page with the small X in > the corner.  I have corresponded quite a few times with their tech help desk > and they gave me a few tips to try, like, installing new java, deleting > cookies and adding nascar.com to safe list and still no luck.  On the bottom > of the page is the little eye with a red line going through it.  When I > click on that it gives me two things that are blocked.

Guest K Hazen Posted June 18, 2008 Posted June 18, 2008 Thanks for the quick answer, I really appreciate any help I can get on this matter as I am perplexed. When I get frustrated I keep saying to myself "computers are our friends computers are our friends.... :-) :-) Anyway, The site, NASCAR.com, is not a gambling or game site, I can go there and watch the race and hear the drivers. I know it is a security issue, but I just can't figure it out. The help desk at NASCAR.com advise using Firefox. I just can't see changing my browser for one site, because as I stated before it did work last season. I have not installed any new security or virus software since then. I am not familair with Firefox, does anyone have any opinions on Firefox? Thanks!

Guest FromTheRafters Posted June 20, 2008 Posted June 20, 2008 Is there a bar at the top of the browser that says something like 'a pop-up was blocked - click here to allow' where you can then set it to always allow pop-ups on that domain? Did you recently upgrade your Internet Explorer?
