Many web sites and multimedia ads use Flash to create animations and other special effects on web pages.

With Research-Desk, you turn Flash on or off. Select Research-Desk Tools, Options, Browser - General to change this setting.

Note that you can use the keyboard shorcut, CTRL+SHIFT+F, to turn Flash on or off at anytime

It is common practice for web-sites to popup web-browser windows to display advertisements. Many users consider this practice intrusive and annoying. Existing popup-blocking software often requires significant user involvement (e.g., maintain lists of URLs filters) or works imperfectly (non-advertisement popup windows are also blocked).

Research-Desk's patent pending PopSmart™ intelligently detects browser popup windows that are advertisements and silently blocks them while allowing 'good' browser popup windows to appear normally.

Select Research-Desk Tools, Options, Browser - General to change this setting.

Note that you can use the keyboard shorcut, CTRL+SHIFT+B, to turn popup blocking on or off at anytime
