There's lots of pop-up blocker people who have specifically designed your "test" to say it succeeded when it failed.

There is no way to tell if a window has been successfully opened and the content available to the user, hence there are no scenarios in which it is possible to stop the navigation - since there's no need to, as the original script works, we don't have a problem.
