Cause/Solution

 

 

When Matrix is launched, I see

There may be a pop-up blocker program running on your PC and preventing

a progress bar for a short

the Matrix window from opening. Verify that you do not have a pop-up blocker

period of time, but the browser

integrated with your IE browser. Programs such as the Google, Yahoo, and

window showing the Matrix

AOL Toolbars—among many others, including IE itself if Service Pack 2 for

application never appears.

Windows XP is installed—contain such features. You must configure your

 

pop-up blocker to not block pop-ups from the Matrix Server software. If this is

 

happening at the server PC, the address the pop-up blocker must allow

 

pop-ups from is http://127.0.0.1. If this is happening at a Matrix Client, the

 

pop-up blocker must allow pop-ups from http://<MatrixServer>, where

 

<MatrixServer> is the host name or IP address of the Matrix Server PC. How

 

the pop-up blocker is configured varies depending on the program, so check

 

that program’s documentation for instructions on how to do this. Usually, the

 

easiest solution is to disable the pop-up blocker entirely.

 

If a pop-up blocker causes the browser-based user interface to not show, the

 

underlying program that handles system communication, warning pop-ups,

 

sending e-mails, etc., should still function as normal.
