When I read my mail running only Outlook Express, I can
open letter, then click on a site, the window opens on
top. If I happen to have my explorer running in the
background, minimized in the task bar, I'll click on the
same site, and the window opens under my outlook express.
How can I get the window to open on top? This only
happened since I upgraded to XP.
 
Hi Roy,

Prevent Programs from Stealing Focus - Undo (Line 66)

When a window that does not have focus is updated by its program, the
default setting prevents it from becoming the foremost (top) window,
instead, it flashes in the taskbar.

HeldUp is the easiest way to stop windows from disappearing behind other
programs. http://www.johnmacintyre.ca/HeldUp.asp
