Despite pop-up blocker being enabled, firefox is unable to block pop up advertisement windows on Indian Railways' official site. It is very annoying since pop up on every field of a page. (there are no entries in 'Exceptions'). URL of the site: http://www.indianrail.gov.in

Google chrome does not have this problem. With FF, it is a problem since I've been using it (version 2.xx I guess) and is continuing even in the latest one (7.0.1).
