Windows 7 problems with z-order for opens windows
When running programs or skype the window is sometimes not visible. It may be being opened behind maavis.
We have a conflict between waning Maavis to be at front to hide rest of Windows from users and other programs needing to interact wit the user. This complex issue was resolved satisfactorarily but something has changed in WIndows 7, possibly handling of TOPMOST windows.
Video confernecing is not usable on new machine as the [really annoying] prompt to allow Maavis to access skype is never seen (behind) mavise
It also appears that skype seems to auto update

The interest in Maavis since the Mail article with Silvia Syms has made this a must fix.
As far as its possible to tell the problems are all the same one, that is 'windows' not appearing top while still viewing or not viewing other windows as appropriate.
For example the exit/quit 'window' isn't seen i.e. the one that should appear over the top of other Windows programs when they are being run .
