I have Windows XP Pro, and since the Service Pack 2 installation, when I have multiple windows open, the windows change at will. I will have one window open, and it automatically is reduced, with another one taking its place. If anyone can help me solve this one, I would appreciate it!

I've seen this happen with spyware. Have you scanned for spyware? There's several free spyware scanners available.

Microsoft's AntiSpyware
SpyBot Search & Destroy
Lavasoft's AdAware SE

Trend Micro has a 14 day trial edition.

Win XP Pro with Service Pack 2 seems to lose
application focus. Try going to:
http://www.winguides.com/ and enter application
focus in the advanced search in the upper left
corner of theweb page.
I applied a couple of the registry tweaks and they
seemed to have helped.
