pop-ups escaping Mozilla Firefox pop-up blocker

[KB]

I have recently been running into pop-ups (actually pop-unders) that appear even though I am blocking all pop-ups in Mozilla firefox. For example go to www.ngemu.com and then click on the "playstation 2" link. A small pop-under will appear off screen in the bottom right corner. How do you stop these?

Dunno, but that site's broken.

Are you sure it is a Firefox window? I've had a handful of sites, that even though I'm using Firefox, open a IE window for the pop up.

The rotten scoundrels.

I went to the site and I am not getting any pop-ups using Firefox. Are you sure it is a firefox pop-up?

Interesting. I got a firefox popup as well doing what the original poster did.

I didn't get anything with FF 1.0.

In opera I can see it accessing it's popup server but I get nothing. BTW, that site sucks.

I didn't get the popup since Firefox said it blocked it. Are you running the newest version? Is your system clean of spyware/adware?

I didn't get a popup but I also have Ad-block..does that make a difference?
