Vista - Window Focus

Hi Everyone

I was having some trouble, with my open windows changing focus as some event
occurs or something is processed in a windows that is not the one I am
actively working on.

For example, say I have clicked on a link on a webpage in one IE window and
then switch to another IE window where I start writing a Hotmail email. As
soon as the page has loaded in the first IE window it will switch to that
first window while I am typing in the Hotmail window.

Does anyone know if there is a setting somewhere that can change this? I've
had a fairly long look in control panel, accessability centre, ease of
access centre and Windows Help but haven't found a solution as yet.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Al
