In Safari 4 I used a Terminal command to set 'single window mode', where all links would open in tabs rather than windows. At least once a day a popup would get through the blocker but it would just load in a background tab, which I didn't mind that much. Now, with Safari 5, which supposedly comes with 'single window mode' the popups are loading separate background windows (popunders). I've tried using the same Terminal command (defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool true) but it doesn't work.

Does anyone know how I can get this working the way it used to?

EDIT: Fixed.

For future reference, the "Open pages in tabs instead of windows" setting is set to Automatically. I set it to Always and it's working so far.
