On some systems the tag window is created as modal, but doesn't get focus until the user clicks on the dialogue box or the winetest window. I've found this on windows server 2003 service pack 1, Michael Jung has confirmed this happens on windows server 2003 and windows xp service pack 2.
I do get similar behaviour regularly on non-Wine applications on my Windows XP system. Even applications from MS like Outlook exhibit this behaviour. It's annoying but I haven't spend any time to look into this.

Hi,
could this have something to do with what 'Tweak UI' calls 'Stealing of Focus'?
The registry value HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\ForegroundLockTimeout takes care of that. Setting it to 0 means that programs are allow to steal focus. I think this started with Win2K.
Setting it to a large value (default is 0x30d40) get's you a flashing taskbar icon when a program tries to steal focus.
Cheers,
Paul.
