RE: Import Script wizard sometimes flashes at taskbar when launched from Windows shell
to andrewdodd13: the problem is not a bug. It comes from the fact that Windows now does not let any application set the focus in their window. Thsi is to prevent annoying software stealing the focus for no reason. So if your process is not considered to be the foreground process, Windows will jsutflash the user instead.

The easy way to fix this is to call AllowSetForegroundWindow.
