I don't know if anyone else has been having this problem, but whenever I get a new Private message it pops up the dialog box telling me I have one. I press ok to view the message, it then brings up another dialog box asking if I want to open it in the current screen or in the new window. But know matter what I press it never opens it up and I have to go my inbox to view it.
Weird. I haven't had that problem. What OS/Browser type are you using?
Never happened to me either,it might have been a glitch.
Same here, i don't believe it has ever worked for me. Maybe it's because i'm always using Mozilla and not IE.Quote:

I use both Opera, and IE 6.0
I to would of said glitch, but it does it to me every time.
cheyenne... you're not using Google bar v2 are you?? if you are don't forget its got a pop up blocker built in... and that does stop the new window opening.... probably a silly suggestion i know but just in case.
Z
nope I don't use it.
Right now I'm using opera, and I just got another message saying I had a private message, and it actually opened a new windows .
But it still won't do it in IE 6.0
cheyenne1212, hey man, I know what your talking about the same thing has happened to me. It does that everytime I get one and I'm using IE on my Windows XP. I used to think that it just happened only if you were online and someone sent you a PM while you were on but now I'm not so sure. Oh well...
--Peace :cool:
how weird... I've got IE6 on my XP box and it's never had a problem... always opens up in a new window... have you got IE SP1 on?
Z
Yeah, I have SP1 along with IE 6.
It must be a glitch in my IE though because I'm using Konqueror right now on my nix box and It opened a new windows for me when I received a new message.
