Do you play POGO?

If you understand the headline then odds are you play online games at pogo.com

Most recently Pogo.com has announced, due to recent changes with the way Chrome handles java script, that you will no longer be able to play using the Chrome web browser and to use either the Internet Explorer or Firefox.

Now if you are a client of mine, you will know my feelings on either of these browsers and that is why I install the Avant Browser as it does an excellent job of emulating the internet explorer when needed.  

That being said however, it is not always convenient to have to open a new browser just to play games at a website of your liking and so this is where the extensions come in to play within the Chrome browser. A quick trip to the Chrome Web Store you will find the IE TAB extension which you will want to install. This will place a small IE icon in the extensions area of your Chrome browser and so when you go to a place like POGO.com you simply click on this icon and it will emulate the internet explorer and everything will work just like you are using the IE browser. When you click out of this website or close the tab it will stop using that extension.
