How are you creating these popups? Can you post a test case or paste the html?

It is on manhunt.net.   It is a gay hookup site   I realize that it may offend
some but you asked for the site. if it offends you I apologize in advance.
 
it works perfect in desktop mode but not in Win 8 metro.

When I click on a pic or link on the main page, Mail for example. in desktop mode the new window opens up and I have no problems but in Metro the screen goes blank. 

Here is the link copied from desktop mode but if you are not logged in your get the main entry page. ( if you have read this far membership is free with limited mail if your want to ) http://www.manhunt.net/mail/folder/inbox/1

could there be some sort of block in Metro that will not allow adult sites? 

I do not remember IE in Metro giving me the same problem. 

I rarely use metro mode but wanted to test Nightly for you in all modes

OK further experiments today show that there seems to be an extra page opened when I click a link on the page so that the correct page is opened then an additional page is simultaneously opened that is blank that makes you think the page you wanted is not there 

I know this because when I right click the correct page is there in the top panel and the bank page is too  

Nightly for some reason is opening up that extra page
