Popup windows ("window.open") no longer works!

For some reason pop up windows are no longer working on my pc. And no, I
dont have any popup killer installed. The problem is across all websites I
look at on my browser.

Is there any obvious reason this might happen? I haven't changed any
settings, but if there's somethign I could check I'd be grateful if someone
could point it out to me!

Thanks!

Forgot to mention, I am using IE6.

Only because there's a legacy system here which requires popups to work.
Personally I hate 'em.!

Do you use the Google toolbar? It may have updated itself with version 2.x,
which includes a popup blocker.
