FAQ's:
- I turned off all of my pop-up blocking software, but
I still cannot launch a lesson. What do I do?
When a lesson
won't launch properly, the most common problem is that your computer has
other software that is blocking pop-ups. Test your computer to see if
it's still blocking pop-ups:
Pop-up
blocker test
If so, go to
PLATO's support site to help find all the other software that is
blocking pop-ups.
- I have as many as 30 blank windows open up when I
try to start a lesson.
If you have a Yahoo Toolbar, try this first: Press and hold the CTRL key
while you are launching PLATO lessons. This will override the pop-up blocker
and allow PLATO lessons to run.
If this doesn't work, here's the info from Plato
support about fixing the problem with multiple windows.
