We'd need a sample URL where this occurs to say what was going on. Most popups are done in JavaScript, and Mozilla popup blocking works by disabling the JavaScript "open unrequested window" function that is used to make that happen. You may wish to allow popups for some sites. For example, there are sites that open a popup to queue a download. Meanwhile, you might want to take a look at the NoScript extension. NoScript blocks *all* scripting activity unless the site in in a whitelist. It defaults to blocking JavaScript, but can also block Java, Flash, and Microsoft Silverlight.
