 Configuring Your Popup Blocker

.
 

If you are experiencing link or viewing problems on the DesperateSeller website, you may need to configure your system so that the site runs smoothly on your PC. This is a one-time procedure that usually takes little more than a minute and does not reduce your security or open your computer to unwanted ads, spyware or other undesirable effects.

Anyone using the Internet has encountered pop-up advertisements. These uninvited ads have proven so annoying that many people have resorted to pop-up/ad blockers.

DesperateSeller.co.uk utilises pop-ups to help enhance your experience. For example, when you are searching for a car on the site we use a pop-up window to display more detailed information about a particular car that you are interested in. We also use pop-up windows to supply you with help or information about particular services we offer on the site.

Pop-up blockers vary in flexibility and sophistication. While DesperateSeller.co.uk is able to function with some pop-up blockers enabled, your current pop-up blocker may have prevented the site from opening important windows which are designed to help you. Therefore it is important that you disable pop-up blocking for this site. Most pop-up blockers allow users to turn off pop-up blocking for selected sites while still blocking unwanted pop-ups from all other websites. We recommend that you make DesperateSeller.co.uk such a "trusted" or "white listed" site. If your pop-up blocker does not have this feature, you may have to disable it entirely before logging into DesperateSeller.co.uk

If you need instructions for configuring your pop-up blocker, click the name of the pop-up blocker or application you are using (on the left) for instructions on how to configure it for use with DesperateSeller.co.uk
