Details

I have javascript options "open unrequested windows" unselected. So the first time when I visit a website (for ex. www.nytimes.com) the popup does not appear, but when I use to "back" button to get back to the site, the popup appears.
Yep. They're actually bypassing the popup-blocking code (very cleverly)... That problem is fixed with a new pref, but there is no UI for this pref yet. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 132031 ***
