Just wondered or is it me. x Ironically, as I was writing to mention to them for the first time, I had to ditch the attempt due to pop-ups! |

No, it's happening to me too. When I try to hit the x - it still won't go, so I end up opening another part of this site to get rid of the wretched thing. |

6th year of Open University - enjoying it, but finding this much more fun! Now, if the whole degree was in family research .......... |

Yes and they are b******* annoying my pop up blocker is not even blocking them and they are not closing when clicking on the cross. I thought I had a virus but my virus checker said I was clear. Hope someone sorts it out and gets it stopped. |

Well good luck Christine, you're obviously doing better than me as I am half way through mine, I'm bored stiff and it finishes in June but got so much work to do. Tedious, tedious.. would much prefer to be doing this too. Having to flit between the two screens so that my boyfriend doing suss onto my skiving habits as he keeps nagging me! Lol. |

I've also emailed GR to complain. Hopefully they will sort it out. Next time you get one, take a note of which www address sent it and tell GR. |

Hooray!! I've had no popups for at least 20 mins (could they have gone??). I'm also doing a degree -have an assignment that should be due in Mid May - but finally made the decision to ask for a deferral and not submit it till next May (daren't tell the Uni the reason why I won't finish it). My husband also thinks I am working on my degree and I flit between 2 screens so he doesn't know). Just wait till he gets the bank statement and sees all the certs I've ordered!!! |

There are a few threads on the General board about the pop-ups. Mine was a big pink heart! Maggy |
