Invisible pop ups - do they still work?

    Who here knows about invisible pop ups? Basically, let's say you have an affiliate link that will set a cookie on your visitor, but you don't want to send them off to the affiliate page yet, so you do an invisible pop up which sets the cookie on your visitor without them having to visit your affiliate page.

    Here is a page that let's you generate an invisible pop up:

    Now, my question is this: Does this actually work? Because when i tried it on IE, it prevented the pop up from "opening"

    All it does is insert a 1x1 IFRAME.
