540874 - main window always on top after using for a while

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Dovydas]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20091221 Firefox/3.5.7 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)

I have gom player runned 24/7 and it's set to always on top. I start firefox, everythings ok, I browse the web, minimize it, run some apps (photoshop, dreamweaver) and  after a certain amount of time I maximize firefox and it's on top of all windows. Can't view any other window (even gom player, which is always on top) without minimizing firefox. After closing and opening the problem is solved for that moment. I was viewing "About Mozilla Firefox" box and it's not on top, just the main window. Tried to open a New Window (CTRL+N) and it's behind the main window and there's no way I can view it without minimizing the main window.

Reproducible: Sometimes




Theme is default, there's nothing special about my computer's configuration.
