Customization:

Enter your Facebook Page Name
Search for http://www.facebook.com/tektrunk and replace it with your site’s facebook page URL.

Change the 10 Second Time Delay
The widget pops up 10 seconds after the page finishes loading. Search for the code below and change the number 10000 to a greater or lesser number.
1 second = 1000. 60 seconds = 60000.

NOTE: The pop-up appears only once in every 30days. If you want the pop-up to reappear, clear your cache and cookies. 

Popup every time the page loads 
By default, the like box widget only shows up the first time the user visits your page. If you would like the facebook box to popup every time the page loads, then remove this line of code:

I personally recommend you guys not to annoy your readers with pop-ups everytime they reload the page. Maintaining good relation should be your first objective and FB likes comes after that! So, decide at what intervals you want to use the pop-up window.
