It is sometimes nice to know that the website would have opened a popup
and have the immediate option to show that popup.  I find the yellow bar
quite useful for this purpose.  If you don't like the yellow bar, you
can disable it easily from the "Options" button.

If you disable the yellow bar, it will show a small unobtrusive icon in
the lower right hand corner when a popup is blocked.  This allows the
same options when clicked, but is not as "in your face" as the yellow
bar.
