Configure Pop-Up Blockers
The most current versions of Internet Explorer, Netscape and Firefox contain built in pop-up blockers. You will need to configure your browser to allow pop-ups from ecourses.purdue.edu since many features in WebCT use pop-ups. To make sure you have pop-ups allowed for WebCT, follow the steps at the bottom of the page to manually check your pop-up settings.
Be aware there are other, pop-up blockers from third party vendors and Internet Service Providers. They are too numerous to document all of them but WebCT provides a brief discussion of them.
