a particular website button is opening a new window

hello;

my firefox has: - Tools/Options/Content/Block Pop-up Windows checked

but when I go to this website: charter.net and press the EMAIL button (near upper-right) it still manages to open a brand new instance of firefox with only one tab corresponding to the EMAIL button's href (I guess).

However, on my mother's computer the new window seems to be getting blocked.

Any thoughts as to what is going on?

thanks, Shannon
