Hi All-
How do you get the program and Variable windows up on screen while animating the circuit? I need to be able to check ADC outputs.
Also can you think of any reason why I HAVE to insert a 30 ohm resistor between the GND side of my ADC potentiometer and GND for the circuit to work properly?

Run the simulation and then pause it.
If the popups don't automatically appear (the system remembers the defaults from the last time you paused) then you can re-enable them via the Debug menu (select the PICAXE options at the bottom of the menu).
No need for a resistor, it appears that your nets weren't properly connected without it. Post the .DSN as an attachment if it helps.
