Meloman is right, to get most of your traffic, you should use an entrance blur console (for eraser type programs and whatever else you feel like using, mailers, dialers, non-adult if allowed, etc.). I do that and also an exit console to mailer programs and dialers. For the rest, I mostly use target=_blank to open a new window, especially for the programs that have a back button manipulation. I also think it is the right thing to do for the sites opening an entrance console and an exit console (or chained consoles), since after leaving them the surfer still sees your initial page and if he leaves it he gets the exit console and still has the blur console sitting there. Also, when you use an exit popup and target=_blank you don't need to put the code to avoid popping the exit console when the surfer clicks on the direct link to a sponsor (not opening in a new window).
But you have to try and see how it converts for you. If surfers use popup blockers also for new windows, they won't be able to see your new windows. In the end you'll figure out what makes you more money.
However, when used only 1 sponsor on a page, use the direct link, no new window. For more on a page, you could also use the direct link for the last one on the page.
About the ppc programs not allowing new windows, it's also a question of taking all your traffic when paying for it, and not leaving it to you, or having it eventually blocked by console blocker softwares.
