How to Allow TXSSAR Pop-Up Windows Information

For Internet Explorer:  click on Tools; Pop-up Blocker; Turn Off Pop-up Blocker.

For Firefox:  Firefox will usually show the PayPal window even with the Pop-up Blocker on.  If it doesn't, select Tools; Options; Content; uncheck the box beside "Block pop-up windows" then click OK.

For Google Chrome:  click on Tools; Options; click the Under the Hood tab; under Web Content, check the "Notify me when a pop-up is blocked" check box.

Note:  If you are only going to temporarily enable Pop-up windows, don't forget to turn your Pop-up Blocker back on when you are finished with your TXSSAR online payment transaction.

Toolbar and Other Pop-Up Blockers

If you have your browser's Pop-up blocker disabled and you still can't see the PayPal window (Pop-ups are still being blocked) you need to check any Toolbars you have installed to see if they have a Pop-up blocker which is enabled.  Toolbars which may have a Pop-up blocker enabled are:

Google Toolbar:  To disable, click the Toolbar's wrench icon.  On the Tools tab, deselect the "Pop-up blocker" checkbox.  Click Save.  You can also go to the website you want to unblock (txssar.org for example) and click the Toolbar's Pop-up blocker button.  The button's icon should change from 'Pop- ups blocked' to 'Pop-ups allowed' .  Once you allow Pop-ups on a specific website, Pop-up blocker adds the website to an 'Allowed sites' whitelist.

Yahoo! Toolbar:  Clicking the Pop-Up Blocker app on your Yahoo! Toolbar toggles the blocker on or off.  Look for Pop-Up Blocker in My Apps on your toolbar.  You can also click the Pop-Up Blocker and click Enable Pop-Up Blocker to turn the blocker on or off.  If there's a checkmark next to it, Pop-Up Blocker is enabled.  Otherwise it's disabled.

Other Pop-up blockers include MSN Toolbar, AOL Toolbar, Pop-Up Stopper, PopUpCop, Norton Internet Security/Firewall Pop-up Blocker, Norton AntiSpam, Opera, Safari, Comcast, and others.  You can download a pdf file that will explain how to disable these here.
