  • Popups, Popups, Popups

    I got burned ( or actually slightly toasted ) by popup blockers that were keeping CRM from functioning properly.

    I encountered it on one of my test boxes after installing the Google toolbar and at a new customer after installing Trend Micro's solution.

    At last count the following vendors and technologies had some form of pop-up blocker:

    • Internet Explorer ( SP2 )
    • MSN Toolbar
    • Google Toolbar
    • Yahoo Toolbar
    • Trend Micro anti-everything
    • Symantec anti-everything
    • [ and I am sure McAfee falls into that as well ]

    So the lesson learned here is to always keep in mind that pop-up blockers can come from anywhere and you need to keep on top of it. Especially if you are in a situation where you may not be in control of the systems or systems software.

    1. [...] As I wrote in a previous article, popups can cause the CRM web client to not display at all, due to the nature of CRM web application startup mechanism. [...]
