Since I installed the most recent Windows XP Professional update applications
(such as games or IE) are now minimizing automatically after a 10 - 15
minutes. Is anybody else experiencing this, and what can I do to keep this
from happening?

Thanks in advance,

Greg

I have been having this problem for a while now and it seems that no one
knows what to do about it. I have even re-installed windows from scratch to
get rid of it, then after a few days it starts happening again. It's more
annoying than anything else, but still a solution would be nice.

I see that there are three posts on this subject but no cure. Has anyone seen
or heard of a fix for this problem?

I just got my Mom a new computer with Vista and it does the same thing. It
minimizes her page when she is playing games on pogo.com. I recently bought a
new system with Vista and my computer has not had this
problem.............any solutions????
