Pop-unders in Opera?

I know the feature only states "block pop-up windows"
but can pop-unders be blocked in opera?

Sample link http://www.yyv.co/ff273ade
It opens a pop-under http://9c1f917.se/?placement=400766&redirect
which in turn moves to http://ww3.shaadi.com/popbehind/join-free.php?p=45c4&ptnr=pinkwiget&aff_url_param=

400766

Please try in a private tab.. cause the pop-under sometimes doesnt open when you frequently visit the site.
Thanks

Can not see any pop-unders on the linkbucks page. Is it a region based ad?

Also if the central iframe is correctly removed then you should not see any pops on linkbucks. Is the iframe removed in Opera?

Thank you.

>> Is it a region based ad?

I think yes.
cause sometimes it opens a popup http://www.dingoads.info/in/indiocasino.php?site=pc29-400766
which moves http://onlinecasinogames.indiocasino.com/jsonlp/

both shaadi.com & indiocasino.com are india centric
I do scan the pc with MSE & malwarebytes.. so that shouldn't be an issue
Also I have Adblock (not plus) with all possible filters.. still pop-unders open

Regarding iframe.. you mean do I see ads on linkbucks ?
No.. the page is blank.. just a timer bar on top which adbypasser skips automatically.

Ok, thanks for your detailed information.

Hmm ... then the situation will be a little complicated.

I can try:

1. force stops all timers (but the time bar will not move) or
2. hijack jQuery to break the dialog (but I'm not even sure it is using jQuery)

either way I can't verify if it is working.

hmm.. in that case I guess lets wait for some other Indian users to confirm the issue.
Thank you so much for your time :)

Update:

I heard about this adblocker called uBlock ( µBlock )
It is said to use lesser system resources.

In my test I found now such pop unders dont open anymore
or if they open.. they silently close in a split second.

So the issue was more likely with Adblock itself.
If anyone is facing similar issues maybe they should have a look at µBlock

Thanks :)

Ok, good to hear that!

Thanks for your information.
