Pop up blockers sure aren't what they used to be

Netphoria just gave me a pop up, even though my pop up blocker is activated.

Are there newer, sexier ones available? (And no, I'm not using IE. It's not even installed on this computer.)

I read an article on how the ad companies have developed new pop-ups (they're actually pop unders) that circumvent the current ad blockers. I know they're working on a countermeasure so we'll just have to put up with it for awhile i guess.

Learn to know the dark side of the popups, and you will achieve a power greater than any blocker!

That's what it was, a pop-under.
