Pop-up Blocker Tip

Ever try to register for a conference and can't access the form? Site links for items like registration forms may try to open a new window. Your pop-up blocker will probably consider this a pop-up. To override this without having to change your blocker setting-

hold down the ctrl key
re-click the link to the form holding down the ctrl key until the form opens
release the ctrl key and continue your original work.

If this option does not work, you will need to go to your pop-up blocker setting and change it.
