How to Disable Pop-Up Blockers

Pop-up windows, or pop-ups, are windows that appear automatically without your permission. Some websites, including some University of Nicosia sites, use pop-ups for important features. Blocking all pop-ups disables such features. To allow specific websites to use pop-ups, while still blocking all others, you can add those specific websites to the list of allowed sites.
