Summary: An update to your popup-blocking software may be in order if you get the message 'SymRealWinOpen is undefined' on your machine.

'SymRealWinOpen is undefined' - why do I get this? |
Apparently it's a side effect of one of the techniques some pop-up blockers use to prevent popups. I'd check with the vendor you got your popup blocking software from for more information, and possibly an update.

I have had the same problem, even after re-installing the yahoo browser, although I found that this problem went when I disabled norton internet security's pop up blocker. Do make sure that you have an alternative installed though. I also use lavasoft adware pop up blocker so I can recommend no problems with that.
Posted by: Anthea Tilley at May 7, 2005 5:42 AMIf I just leave me PC switched on, I get the message line: 33, char: 1, 'symrealwinopen' is undefined. It asks if I want to run the scripts and wether you press yes or no, it opens up a pop up ad. I'm running XP and Norton Anti Virus. If I disable ad blocker, then surely I'm gonna get more ads coming through?

Posted by: barbara at July 30, 2005 11:59 PMI had this problem everytime I did a Yahoo search. I fixed it by doing the following: Open Norton Internet Security. Click on Ad Blocking. Choose Configure (it is in bottom right corner). Click on Advanced. Click on the Ad Blocking Tab, it is on the right side. Scroll down and find the "Yahoo" html strings. Click Remove for each one.
This fixed it for me. Hope this helps eliminate this annoying problem for you.

I think I'm just going to use Google. *(sigh)*
