Chapter 6. Acronis Pop-up Blocker

6.1 What are pop-ups?

While browsing some Web sites, you might have unwanted pop-up windows
open along with the window you want. Generally, pop-ups contain bothersome
advertising. They slow down your Internet connection and increase the traffic
you pay for. On some Web sites, pop-ups are used to provide extra information
or as locations where the user needs to input information.

6.2 Acronis Pop-up Blocker

Acronis Pop-up Blocker automatically prevents windows from opening, except
the ones the user wants to view.
You can install Acronis Pop-up Blocker remotely using the Acronis Privacy Expert
Corporate Management Console (See section 1.8 «Installing Acronis components
onto remote machines» of this Guide).
After that, the local user can disable/enable the Acronis Pop-up Blocker or
change its options by right-clicking the icon in the system tray and selecting the
item from the context menu.
A local computer user can stop the Acronis Pop-up Blocker operation completely
(unload the program from the memory) by right-clicking the icon and selecting
Exit. The Pop-up Blocker icon disappears from the system tray. To start the
program again, select Programs → Acronis → Privacy Expert → Acronis
Pop-up Blocker.

6.3 Acronis Pop-up Blocker local options

A local user can invoke the Acronis Pop-up Blocker options window by double-
clicking the Pop-up Blocker icon in the system tray with the left mouse button.
