    The Game is always detecting a Pop up Blocker (Mozilla / Mac) when the Site is loading. But the Blocker is disabeled,

    Hi NBrenner, have you cleared your browser and flash cache since the 11/6 system update? Please do so and let us know if that helped. Here are instructions: http://www.wgt.com/forums/p/635/2552.aspx

    yes im still getting it here the 2nd e mail i sent wtg

    I was wondering if you had any suggestions as to a pop up blocker message that I get when I log on to your site to play golf.  I have my pop up blocker off and still get this message which ultimately states that with it on it may interfere with my game.  My game renders well in certain areas e.g. loading screen etc but lately I have experienced that my game will freeze up completely and I have to exit out in order to continue or the golfer will not shoot at all. 
     
    Also, my wife tried to create a player so that we could try playing together.  She created a player name and password but now it is telling her that the password is invalid.  The player name is woodtick3.  Can you send her a new p/w to her e-mail address so that she is able to play and not sign in as a guest
    Thanks for any attention into this matter.  Look forward to your help and reply.

    Hi bigfish, how many times has your game frozen up and at what point in the game? Also, has your wife tried to use the "Forgot Password" link in the login box?

     bigfish, I am guessing that you and your wife are sharing a broadband connection. I have no idea if that is contributing to some of your issues. I have multiple computers with a wireless network. I haven't as yet run two of them on WGT. I will do this today to see if it has any effect on my speed or anything else for that matter.

    All of my PCs are XPsp3, IE8 beta, and flash 10. Currently I experience very few problems so I should be able to tell if sharing a connection has any effect on game performance.

    If you aren't sharing a connection then I don't suppose this will help you in any way. But it will be a good comparison test regardless. I hope it will help.

    We looked at the issue and found that the pop-up blocker message is shown erroneously to some users. We are working on a fix, so thanks for reporting this.
