Details

Sometimes when I look up a word in Merriam-Webster's online dictionary, a popup managed to show up. These popups don't show up all the time, luckily, but if other websites had learnt of it, Mozilla's anti-popup is compromised. I haven't read the source code so I have no idea how it bypasses it nor could I give a test-case.
I put this bug in Security component, but please change it if necessary.
This is WFM in 1.5beta1. There is a tracking bug for all sites that bypass the popup blocker - bug 253831. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 253831 ***
