When I want to add new contact, the following message shows:
“Grr! A popup blocker may be preventing Gmail from opening the page. If you have a popup blocker, try disabling it to open the window.”

Please advise.

Whenever I am opening the gmail after submitting my username and password a message with the text “Internet explorer can not open the internet site http://mail/google.com/mail/” OPERATION ABORTED
is shown and when I go through google.com and search gmail and click on that once in ten attempts it is opened.

Thanks a lot! Adding mail.google.com to the symantec ad blocking allow list did the trick.

Thanks for the info. It worked. I have Norton 360 running Vista. I didn’t have the problem until I downloaded and installed the free add-on anti-spam pack. The ad blocking option was already off but the popup blocker option was on. Once I turned off the popup blocker everything was ok.

Actually, for me, it was Google toolbar’s pop up blocker. When I make it from “Blocked” to “Pop Ups Okay”, I still can’t get the pop ups. But if I hit the “control” key and then the link I want opened, it lets things open up. My Norton turned on or off doesn’t seem to affect anything.

Awesome!! I googled the problem and go your web page… and VIOLA!!! Unfortunately, i still can’t get hotmail forwarded to gmail…something about hotmail not being using POP?

I hoped to avoid having everyone change their email address books, but it looks like i’m going to have to anyway. Thanks for the tip though, it worked!!!!!
