I have a question for you folks regarding pop-ups.

What exactly is the difference between an automatic pop-up ad and an 'open browser window' in a link (simliar to this when you click the thumbnails)?

I mean other than the fact that the automatic ones are the evil and all...

Does blocking pop-ups through any browser options or even a pop-up killing program make links such as those thumbnails unable to open? I know I used to just assume there would be similar problems and also spoke to somebody today of the same belief.
