Sandra:
The built in popup stopper of SP2 tells me its blocked a popup and to click the warning to show it.
As I know that it refers to a PM then I dont bother and just go to my messages and read them.
Maybe its doing that on yours too Gill and youre not noticing it as its the sound that alerts me to it more than the actual warning that appears under the toolbars, although thats using IE, maybe Mozillas stopper works in a different way  :?

Simon:
I don't even get a 'blocked pop up' noise on mine, which I do usually with Mozilla or Firefox.

There might be some info on the phpbb forums, but I haven't time to look until this evening.

chorleydave:
I have noticed that the popup isn't working, probably because I have Opera set to block all unrequested popups.  However, I had a PM the other day and was notified by means of a one-line notification which, if I remember correctly, was at the top left of the Home Page after I had logged in and said "You have one new private message" - or similar.

chorleydave:
Actually, it is visible now, directly under Home and Memberlist in the menu tabs.  Mine says "You have no new messages".

Simon:
Yes, that works, and has always been there, Dave, but I think people want something a little more noticeable.  As Sam said, we are continuing to look for a solution to this.  

I did wonder if it could have been Firewall settings?  Norton has a pop up blocker, and I have just configured mine to allow pop ups from pc-pals.com.  All I need now is for someone to send me a PM!  ;)
