Yes. My popup blocker does not work like your example. I get a little "!" in a cartoon "pow!" shaped box that tells me the link will take me to an external website and it asks if it's okay. I tell it "yes" and it goes nowhere. To make the links on bf runners dot org open for me I right click and tell it "open" or "open in a new window." Either works, but it's an extra step that doesn't occur anywhere else I visit regularly.

That's fine, Tom. The messages you and Joy and others are getting when clicking on an external link are setup that way on purpose because we want things to open in a separate window, so you will still have the BRS's window open in the background should you want to return. Hee. If you open an external link and it closes our site's window, then you would have to manually launch us to get our site back up, and that would annoy people.

I figured it out! It's freakin' Facebook. Intermittently, whenever Facebook wants to load on the BRS site (toward the bottom right side bar), it gets blocked by IE. If I kill the "Allow" message, the Facebook app doesn't load, which tells me it's Facebook. Now to figure out how to stop it...

Okay, I added it to my secure sites/zones. Hopefully, that does the trick. Why I had to do that after two years, who knows, and I don't have the energy to hunt it down.
