IE popup delay

Have you ever seen IE got locked up for as long as 20 seconds because the page has a popup window? If you do, have you solved the problem? Please tell me how.

I used to solve it by updating MS Virtual machine 3 months ago. But yesterday I installed every possible updates offered at Microsoft.com, it didn't work out--a waste of time and energy.

This problem is driving me nuts because I need it to test my webpage. I hope Micro$oft doesn't do this on purpose to discontinue support for java.

Hey testtechtalk, does this happen on all sites with popups? Are you using a popup blocker (including the one built-into the Google toolbar, Norton Internet Security, or a web browser like Safari with a built-in popup blocker?

Nope. My laptop is freshly reinstalled yesterday. In fact, I did what I used to do right after XP was up. That's why I suspected Microsoft.

And yes, it happens with every site that pops a window up.

disable active scripting and never see another "POP UP"

Tools/Internet Options/Security/Custom Level.../Scripting/ Disable Active Scripting

I use mozilla

I need to have a popup showed on my webpage. Disabling scripting is removing interactive capability from the page.

By the way, I agree that Mozilla does a better job than Netscape, especially when dealing with table cell's onMouseover.
