    pop-unders are just as bad as popups in my opinion, they should be blocked, plain and simple

    It's not possible to make an unblockable pop-under. Or pop-up for that matter. Luckily, because they're damn annoying. It's possible to make an "in-window" "pop-up" with javascript and CSS. It's just a layer, so this can't be blocked except by disabling javascript altogether. But they're the most annoying kind. It's not worth it, unless you want to lose traffic.

    I mean one that doesn't get blocked by windows xp / IE / google toolbar. I know it is possible because I still get popunders from time to time.

    Check out what CasaleMedia and TribalFusion are doing. Their popunders avoid most blocking mechanisms.

    The Google AdSense Program Policies state "Other types of pop-ups, pop-unders, or exit windows may be allowed, provided that they do not exceed a combined total of 5 per user session."

    Yep, and I'm only planning on showing 1 per session.
