I had two ads using the same code, one triggering the pop-up blocker and one that didn’t and it took me embarrassingly long time to realize that the only difference was in the Flash player I exported for.

So, Internet Explorer blocked all getURL() calls in my swf:s exported for Flash Player 7, but worked fine in swf:s exported for Flash Player 8. So, if you’re out there looking for a solution – just skip the whole let’s-publish-for-old-versions thing and get on with it.
