How Do I Disable The Pop-Up Blocker to Upload Video to Facebook & Others?

When I try to upload a video clip I shot of some 4th of July Fireworks to Facebook, I get the error message "In order to upload videos on your profile, Facebook needs to be able to create a pop-up window. Please disable your pop-up blocker or allow this page to create popups, then try again."

I have uploaded to FB before, but apparently I've turned on the pop-up blocker. How do I turn it off? I am new to MAC from pc, so please have mercy and help me...

Thanks

Macbook 13.3 Unibody, Mac OS X (10.0.x), 2.4ghz 320gb 4gb RAM

Hi IamR.Ph.

Unless you have a 3rd party blocker, Safari's built-in one can be disabled via the following method:

In the top menu click Safari (to the right of the Apple logo) then click "Block Pop-Up Windows."

If you see a check mark next to this then the blocker is enabled, if there's no check mark than the blocker is already disabled and something else is doing the blocking.
