First add the site to your trusted zone. Open IE, click on the security tab,
and add it. While you're in there you can disable the options for using the
popup stopper (built into IE) in the trusted zone if it's already enabled.
Alternatively, open IE, click tools > popup blocker > click on change
settings...
