This is part of a series of Tech Tips aimed to assist Orchard users in adjusting to our migration from Invision Board 1.3 to Invision Board 2.0.

It's pretty much expected these days that MOST of us are running some kind of Popup Window blocker. Even standard browser plugins like the Google Toolbar provide this capability by default, and in recognition of this, Invision has gone back to the drawing board and redone their PM (Personal Messaging) system so that it doesn't rely on Popup notifications to alert you of new messages.

Whenever you recieve a new "PM", your alert will now show at the top of your current browser window. You will be given the option to read the message in the current window, in another window, or to ignore the message completely (at least temporarily).
