Hi....searched many of the current messages but did not see anything
similar to my problem, nor did I see any information pointing to an
FAQ to look at. If FAQ exists please point me in that direction, if
not maybe you have seen this problem before:

Remote is desktop computer running WinXp Pro Sp1(currently behind
firewall but problem existed prior to firewall installation)
Local clients (laptop and desktop) running WinXp Pro Sp1

Behavior: When using remote desktop in full screen mode on local
laptop, approx 2 sec after minimizing RD window, it maximizes
automatically. If I first take it out of full screen and place into
window then minimize then all is good. I have also seen this behavior
from other computers both laptop and desktop. Happens under a variety
of situations ranging from nothing running on local with nothing
running on remote, to several windows on both machines.

Desired solution: If this is a known issue then please provide
information on keywords to search for that will generate results when
searching the WWW. Otherwise, direction on how to trouble shoot the
issue. I have considered tracking open programs when the problem
appears but have not started that yet as it seems to be fairly common
regardless of what software I have open, and mostly due to this being
a nuisance more than a real problem so other issues have taken
precedence.

Thanks for your time and efforts!
