Yep - there are some sponsors that, if you allow popups on the FHGs, will give me the first one or two consoles, and then open up windows for tours that don't have my affiliate code in 'em, and even go to other sponsors' tours with the first sponsor's own affiliate codes embedded. And it gets even worse when I'm also promoting that 2nd sponsor - it means that promoting the first sponsor can result in my sending traffic to my competition.

Bottom line to me is, if I'm gonna subject my surfers to pop-ups at all, I'd like to be the one who gets credit for the sales.
