Browser Configuration – Pop-up Blockers

Pop-up ads are a form of online ads used to increase traffic to web sites or gather email addresses. Certain web sites will open a new web browser window in order to display advertisements. Pop-up blockers are used to block a web page’s ability to open a new window for the purposes of displaying unwanted advertisements. Pop-up blockers stop TimeWolf from displaying correctly. In order to correct the issue the TimeWolf 4.0 website must be permitted to open pop-ups or the pop-up blocker must be disabled.
