Details

If you use Windows alt-tab to bring the browser window into focus, the browser gets thinks the alt key is pressed. So if you type an 'e', it pop open the Edit menu because it interprets it as alt-e. This is very annoying when switching back while editing a form (e.g., bugzilla) or composing mail or html.
This works OK on Win2K.
