I haven't completely tracked down the code yet, but this popup is happening when
you click on the multimedia link.  It loads a popup in the corner of the screen,
waits a few seconds, then the popup loads an ad and resizes/moves the window.

Don't know if there's anything you can do about that, since disabling any
onclick popups breaks legitimate stuff.
