Pop-up Blockers Being Defeated

Todd Dominey, the writer of What Do I Know, just
blogged about something which I have noticed myself as of late. Whilst surfing the web (or the internets) in Safari I often have more than one window open. When I am done looking at something I close all the windows and what do my disbelieving eyes see before me? Why, a pop under ad! Those nefarious ads that open a window behind your current browser window and ask you to smash the bug to win an iPod.

What the heck is going on here? My pop-up blocker is active, and I have the latest version of Safari. Todd points the finger at Flash and its ability to open new windows, which the browser thinks are part of the site to which you have just visited. This is not a good thing, and I am sure Apple's programming are busy working on something that will stop this. At least I hope they are, what else are they working on?
