WFM too. Maybe Tabbrowser Extensions installed?

Please reopen if you can reproduce this with a trunk build.

Clicking on a link still shows the occasional popup with latest trunk, as of
7/3/2005

Comment 5

[José Jeria]

That is made by design. Popups that appear on click cannot be blocked. If that
woudl be the case, many websites wouldnt work at all.

No, this isn't an on click popup, internet explorer blocks this popup just fine.

Comment 7

[José Jeria]

With the default blocking settings in IE 6 XP 2, there is also a popup when you
click on a link. Again, blocking these popups would be fatal.

Open IE, goto Tools->Options click the privacy tab, go down to the popup blocker
section and press settings  Go down to the notifications and filter level
sections and change the filter level to high, click close and ok. Visit the site
and you'll notice the popups don't appear.

As said before, with the normal settings the popup will not be blocked. With the
settings set to high, no popup will ever open. If not mistaken, you can do the
same in Firefox via a setting.

Anyway, see the bug in comment 8

this is fixed also in Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9a6pre) Gecko/20070610 Minefield/3.0a6pre ID:2007061004 [cairo]

On this site/url from the steps to reproduce i get the warning in minefield that 2 popups are blocked.

-> works for me
