Floating contacts causes full screen games to tab out by FrozernFire on 10-19-2004 at 10:51 AM

hmm, i use windows 2000, msn msgr and msg plus! ver 3.21.104. let's say im playing a full screen game like gunbound or unreal tournament. i put my favourite contacts on the desktop and hide the floating contacts when they are offline. one of them signs in, causing a floating window to appear. what is the problem is that that will cause my game to automatically tab out and show my desktop. though this is a minor bug, it can be irritating sometimes when several sign in right after the other. hope patchou can solve this :)

have you tried to disable the Always on top feature of the floating windows? (can be done in the right-click menu of them)
