Hyperlinks / Anchors Broken

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install or Enable DOM Snitch
2. Any mode works (Passive, Invasive, Standby)
3. Click, Ctrl+Click, Middle Mouse Click a link

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Modifier + Click :
  Expect that the link will open solely in new tab/window.
  Instead current window navigates to the link as well.
Click with href="" and onclick="return false" handling :
  Expect that anchor does nothing.
  Instead current window reloads page.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
DOM Snitch  0.706
Chrome 13.0.782.32 beta-m
Windows 7 x64

Please provide any additional information below.
The onclick handler mentioned above is actually a function that displays a 
popup menu and then returns false, e.g. onclick="return popup()"
