It happens when they click a javascript print button. I'll try and get 
over there for more testing and try and isolate it. Its a LTSP setup at 
a Dr office. I don't think it pops under if you use file - print but 
don't recall for sure.

Gnome did introduce some pop under functionality many years ago. When I 
used gnome, it drove me crazy. I vaguely remember replacing metacity..
