After everytime i restarted Camino, the under pop-up's still pop-up

Reproducible: Always
Can you provide the URL you're viewing when this occurs?  I see no pop-anything on http://tripod.lycos.com
Severity: enhancement → normal
Steps to reproduce:

1) Go to http://emailsites.tripod.com/pop3.htm
2) Click any link.
3) Watch ad pop up underneath browser window.

Make sure you're testing this with a clean profile; the ad is quite blockable (my hostperm.1 file kills it quite effectively).

Confirming and kicking to Core for further triage, since I see this in Camino and Firefox equally.

the link is this : http://emailsites.tripod.com/pop3.htm  for some reason it will allow the pop-under but the graphics are not there


I see this too on Windows. Probably related to bug 355482.
