Opening new wind-up ows.

Both the desktop and iPad version of Safari constantly open new windows when I navigate Setup in Salesforce. In many cases it also makes the new tab unfunctional. Is there a way to turn off this behavior?

Example: I log into SF and go to Setup >Users>Users.. I get a warning that my popup blocker is keeping it from opening. I tell it to open and the user list is opened in a new tab. Sometimes when this happens (workflows) it renders the links disabled.

Any help is appreciated. This doesn't happen when using chrome on the desktop or iPad.
