target _BLANK in IE9 Blocking New Windows?

So I was making a few flash buttons today and I hadn't tested them on IE9 so just out of curiosity to make sure shit was right I tested...

and to my surprise IE9 blocked it....it was a onclick event...

and the url was hardcoded into the flash (which I have done in the past with no issue)

standard swfobject embed.....

is this new and I am just clueless? (highly possible)

advice from those of a higher power than me welcome....

Hey man, I researched this a bit, seems it can be one of a few problems:

1) Is it a full install, not beta or anything?

2) Try this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6...ng-click-event

or this:

<a href="test.html" onclick="return ! window.open(this.href);">New Window Open</a>
3) If you like I can review the code, can you PM it to me?
