Why should my computer switch from Fluther to Outlook by itself from time to time?

Outlook is notoriously jealous.

No, Fluther just gets shy sometimes.

Could you have accidentally hit Alt-Tab while typing, or another hot-key combo that switches between windows?

No. I tried it right now and it starts with a preview of the 4 windows I have opened. I would have noticed that.

Some background process in Outlook has stolen focus (windows stupid name for being the active program). iTunes does it all the time.

Mine doesn’t do it THAT way, but when I try to go to my email window from fluther, sometimes it’ll go there for just a split second & then flip back to fluther. I sometimes have to click it several times before it’ll stay on my mail screen. I’m on Windows XP. These computers DO have a mind of their own. They run us…we don’t run them.

@jbfletcherfan Shh, don’t tell them we know they run us.

@chyna This is true. It’s like cats. They own us…we don’t own them!
