How do I turn off my pop-up blocker in Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari?

Some assessments run in a separate pop-up window. Pop-up blockers on your PC can prevent your test window from opening. Active pop-up blockers should be disabled. It may be useful to note that all modern browsers have a pop-up blocker pre-installed. This may also be the case with some anti-virus software packages and toolbars. Please read the manual that came with your anti-virus software to find out how you can temporarily disable your pop-up blockers.
