Hi, hope this makes some sense - it's driving me crazy.
had this problem for about a week on one of my PCs;
Using WinXP sp2, latest firefox
was playing a full screen game and suddenly it minimised onto the takbar, this kept happening repetedly and at random. I thought it was the game, however I then noticed that if I have two windows (firefox/IE/windows folder/file copy progress window....) open the one that is currently selected will suddenly grey out as if deselected, but nothing else will be selected (have focus) and after a few seconds it will switch back to how it was. This seems to happen for all games as well. So i visited google, downloaded TweakUI, installed and told it not to let programs steal focus, worked fine for about ten mins - just long enough for me to think it's fixed then it starts again. tried running ad aware, webroot spysweeper and panda scan, picked up a few minor threats but not much and didn't solve the problem. Downloaded Comodo ran it, and that picked up one more threat, but still didn't solve the problem. If anyone can help that would be great, or if you need more info let me know.
Cheers,
Dan
