Steps: 1. Load Home Page Reader and Mozilla or Firefox 2. Alt+Tab between them quickly What happens: Mozilla/Firefox crashes
I was able to reproduce this in the debugger. NotifyWinEvent is crashing becasue we're reporting a focus event for our child, but in HPR's window.
We used to insist that the window we fire a MSAA focus event for was the same window that Windows reported has focus. However, this was only added for Window-Eyes and my testing shows that with recent versions of Window-Eyes this is no longer necessary. By removing this code, we no longer accidentally fire a focus event for a window in some other application, as the user hits Alt+Tab (The Alt in Alt+tab very briefly activates the main menu bar which causes a focus event).
