    Service Pack 2 pop-up blocker blocks "target=_new"

    Just noticed it.
    It blocks target="new" and target="_blank" links.

    Damn, that sucks.

          they overreact their need to block everything, normal sites always have a target="_blank" link somewhere, its crazy they try to block that.

            target=blank works just fine for me.

            I have sp2 and 2 different google toolbars installed.

              that only happens when you set the popup blocker to "high"
              in medium mode it doesn't block target new links

                You probably forgot to close the quotes, creating an error and not letting the window open.

                  True. If it's on high you can hit the Ctrl button while clicking and the blocked window will open.

                    Ok.. the question on my mind now is how many surfers surf with the control on high?

                    What was it set at default I forget?

                        I think it's about 3%
