You can try AB+ 6.1 if you want.
But I don't think your message has something to do with Adblock. Popup blocker is (normally) a feature of firefox.

It is - that's site blocking. One of the features you won't find in Adblock Plus 0.6.

No. Site blocking generally can't do much.

Open your Site blocking -page(ctrl + shift + n) and remove those url's.

"Site blocking" doesn't block popups - it "blocks" the page that opens in this popup, meaning it replaces the contents of this page (in a rather ugly way actually).

Guest, I would suggest you use
NoScript the popups that are missed by Firefox's popup blocker are Javascript or Flash and Noscript blocks them on all sites except ones you whitelist. Helps a LOT!! Give it a spin. You can always remove it if you don't like it. I'm back to using it again myself.
PS, you can even temperately allow a site too. Like to view a flash or movie or whatever.
