Is this a known issue or is there a setting I'm missing?

I am using IE7 and Ad-Watch SE with Pop-Up Blocker on. Even if I turn off Pop-Up Blocker in IE7, Ad-Watch still able to block the pop-up.
So, the key is to have the blocker set on in Ad-Watch SE.
For IE7:
Click on the tools icon (below address bar to the right), then click on Pop-up Blocker. Click on the Pop-up Blocker setting from there and configure.
