My window loses focus

[Mike]

For some reason I am having trouble with Windows XP on this computer now.
Just when I am in the middle of typing as I am presently doing the window
suddenly loses focus. The blue bar goes to gray. I have changed out the mouse
and the keyboard and don't think it is a hardware problem. In fact it just
did on the word "this" above. Sometimes it loses focus when I am doing
nothing. So far it has done it twice while I am writing this text. I have to
click on the mouse to reposition the cursor. Any suggestions? Thanks,

Thanks for the try. I did what it said but it did not help. Do you have any
other suggetions? Could it be my computer? Thanks

You can install Tweak UI. Once installed, go to
Start > Programs > PowerToys > TweakUI > General > Focus and
place a check next to "Prevent applications from stealing focus".

I did that. It still loses focus. Any other suggestions? Don't understand why
it suddenly started doing this. I did not change anything. Thanks. -Mike
