something weird is happening...starting today (it worked fine last night) I cannot get pop-up messages from this website. I do not have a pop-up blocker on, and I can tell this because I do get pop-up ads. Whenever I click on a Sleuth link, a message box pops up, but then goes away. I am not using the backspace button. Any tips or suggestions? thanks!

On Internet Explorer, if you're playing through a secondary window(a window created after the first one is made), I found that you end up getting blank IMs. Try closing all your windows when this happens and then going back to sleuth through the first window you created. This time you should have no trouble getting the messages.

Thanks for the tip, Akano. Unfortunately it didn't work, though :( Any other suggestions, anyone?

It's so weird because it worked fine last night, and I haven't changed any settings or anything to the best of my knowledge since then...

Jojo had a similar problem and Ben suggested trying to use another browser..."Firefox". I think...not really sure and since the bug thread is gone, I can't really look it up either....

Anyone else remember?

I also experienced the this too, but I don't remember how the problem was resolved. If it happens again, I'll let you know.

Don't know if it will work but try clearing your cache

Yep cfm, Mozilla Firefox.


I used it, and POOF, pop-ups again!


You just have to make sure mozilla's pop-up blocker is off.

Yay for Firefox! I'd been meaning to get it for awhile now and just kept forgetting to actually download it. My pop-up message came up with no problems. Thanks, all!

Kat, maybe you can find something in here that might help? Best thing I can come up with at the moment :)

For some reason FireFox cannot find any web pages after I downloaded it. Anyone else have that problem?
