I have been using Safari for almost a year now, Never before I had any pop-up windows. I have Block Pop up windows checked in Safari, recently I cleaned up all cookies, since then I start getting thes pop up windows, what 's up with that? Did my Mac get a virus or some kind of adwares?

I use Tiger 10.4.8, Safari 2.0.4 (419.3). And I double checked that the block pop up windows are checked.

Since Internet Explorer got a popup blocker, the people who write them have gotten more clever. You've probably found a site that gets around Safari's blocking as well.

This might help you too.

One thing that gets past Safari's (and Firefox's without some management) is Flash-based ads that are embedded in pages. In Firefox you can explicitly block or at least manage Flash plugins, but I don't know about Safari.
