Since yesterday Outlook started to stay in the foreground. If Outlook
is in the foregound (maximised or not) and I want to change to another window with Alt-Tab, the new windows shows for half a second and then Outlook is back. Sometimes I succeed to get another to the foreground but as soon as I click into that window Outlook is back again! Any idea what could be the reason for that? I already did a reboot. (Windows XP SP2; Outlook XP) |

Did you install Plaxo? This is a known behavior.

Thanks for your reply. No, I do not know Plaxo.

I would check all Add Ins and COMs to verify they all work with your version
of Outlook. You could disable them all, add them back one at a time and test inbetween. -- Kathleen Orland Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ http://www.howto-outlook.com/ "dragonfrostbyte" wrote: Thanks for your reply.

Many thanks for this hint. I deactivated all Add Ins and COMs but the
strange behaviour persists. dragonfrostbyte K. Orland schrieb: I would check all Add Ins and COMs to verify they all work with your version of Outlook.
