Pop-Up "Like" On Facebook Box

    My website http://www.repeat-one.com is just starting out and we made a Facebook page to go along with it, which you can find at Facebook.com/repeatone. I noticed that some websites have a pop-up Facebook "like" box right when you visit the site that prompts you to "like" the Facebook page before continuing. I think this is a great idea and could increase traffic to our site, but I can't figure out how to do it for my WordPress.com site. Any suggestions or tutorials out there?

    The blog I need help with is repeat-one.com.

    You cannot install any pop-ups on a free hosted WordPress.com blog ie. no iframes and no JavaScript are allowed. The software strips those codes out to provide security as this is a multiuser blogging platform. http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/

    No I don't. We cannot use pop-ups on our blogs at all.

    Pop-up in your face "like" this blog before you have even read the content messages are desperation messages. Moroever, as the visitor has not even read tha bloody blog if they click the "like" button then they are a fraudster. Capice?
