Is there a default setting in winxp to open new programs/windows always on
top? I have a program that keeps opening its windows behind already open ones
and so I don't readily see it.

Thanks!

This is a flaw in the program you use, not in Windows. To get around the
flaw you can launch the program via batch file like so:
@echo off
start /b "Ric's Program" "c:\Windows\system32\calc.exe"
c:\tools\cmdow calculator /top
c:\tools\cmdow calculator /not

The example uses the Windows Calculator to demonstrate the principle.
You can download cmdow.exe from http://www.commandline.co.uk/cmdow/.
