| | When Outlook runs window focus keeps changing!!! Hi Guys, I have installed Office 2007 Ultimate onto Windows Vista Ultimate and everything is great apart from one VERY annoying anomaly. When I start Outlook it keeps switching focus to something else in the background and then back again. It does it about every 5 seconds and when I start another program it does that same thing, the start button does it as well but when I close outlook, everything seems to come back to normal. I have looked at the task manager and it seems to be something to do with "dwn.exe" can anyone please advise me on a solution to this. I am starting here because I dont want to ring India for tech support. (nothing against that accept I cant understand them most the time  )Regards Dave |
