PMs do not work like instant messages or even popup ads. Interface-wise, they are organized like your email inbox and the messages themselves look like the posts you'd see in a thread, except that they are not concatenated. Composing a PM is much like composing a post. The only popup window you might get if you get a PM is a window that says that you have a new message and asks you whether you want to open it -- this feature can be disabled in the user options menu such that you won't have anything popping up. You can alternatively choose to be notified of the arrival of new PMs by email.
In other words, if you've been able to post on the FB and not get busted by the IT folks, then it's unlikely that there would be a problem when you use PMs.
