Click on Tools on the toolbar right at the top of your screen (at least it is on my screen!!)

Click on Pop-Up Blocker

Advertising - it keeps the subscription costs down.

I use Firefox as my browser which has an add-on called Adblock Plus installed.

No pop-ups or adverts - bliss.....!

Why do we have to have annoying pop ups on Genes Reunited? I've been online for only 5 minutes and in that time I've had 4 popups. So annoying, so distracting. Baaaaaaah!
