Gripemaster that is an easy one, just have them add your site url to their trusted sites.

Had my girlfriend try that on her computer and it didn't work. I also had two AOL users test it out for me and it didn't work for them either. The messages aren't popping up, but they see they have new pager messages and they can download them from the box, but they are not popping up for them. On mine they are. Works fine on my end now, pops up and everything, but no one else can get them to pop up.

1- You will need to enable that from vB Pager Options under ADMINCP
2- You will need to enable that from vB Pager Options under your normal Control Panel.
