1233579	2011-09-25 21:15:00	Hi This has been happening for a while and is really peeing me off. Here are a couple of examples: I'm in a WP program and open the help file. It opens and then "hides" behind the main program window, so I either have to minimize the main program window, or ALT - TAB to get to the help window. When using Revo uninstaller, it will first make a restore point, and then open the particular apps built in uninstaller utility. This always opens behind Revo's main window, which won't let you minimize it so again you need to ALT - TAB to get to it. There are numerous other instances. Is this normal Vista (Home Premium) behaviour, or is their something I can tweak so that a smaller window/notification opens in front of the main window? Thanks	tuiruru (12277)

Seems the problem is universal across XP and Vista Google is your friend :)	baabits (15242)
