I do not know the answer to that one, but it would annoy the hell out of me. Some sort of malware perhaps. I would check to see if popups are blocked in your browser. | |||

Found WaPo listed as a trusted site in ghostery... Deleted that & hope that will resolve it. _________________________ NRA Endowment Member _________________________ "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

You, sir, are a genius! Man, was that buried deeply... That was like having to go down to the cellar to find the instructions, with the lights burned out, using a flashlight to find the instructions in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard'. _________________________ NRA Endowment Member _________________________ "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

I'm not a genius (maybe in my own mind), just have experience with the notifications.

What? You're opposed to the bypass? You've had notice. "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . . That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation." Alfred Hornik, Sunday, December 2, 1945 to his family, on his continuing duty to others for surviving WW II. | |||
