Yes, popup is "connected" with feature, and if you are using some
strategy that fetches new data as map is moved, new features are
loaded. Unfortunately if there are features that are selected, they
dont get unselected before removing them from the layer. (i might open
a ticket for this)

Best way is to close popup (or deselect feature if you registered
popup close onUnselect callback) before loading new features.
Something like:

    WFSlayer.events.register('loadstart', WFSlayer, function (evt){

            if(selectedFeature && selectedFeature.popup){
                map.removePopup(selectedFeature.popup);
                selectedFeature.popup.destroy();
                selectedFeature.popup = null;
            }
    });

hope it helps,
cheers
