From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win 9x 4.90; en-US; rv:0.9.9+) Gecko/20020403 BuildID: 2002040303 When I am reading a web page, I will frequently open a link in a new window, then switch back to the one I was viewing before to finish reading the page. The problem is that once the other page has finished loading, it appears on top of the current one, interrupting my reading/filling out forms. If this is simply a preference option, I certainly haven't found how to turn it off. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.go to www.google.com 2.Right-click the "advanced search" link and open it in a new window 3.When the window opens, return to the original window and wait. Once the new window has finished opening, it will take over the view. Actual Results: The new window overrode the one I was currently viewing. Expected Results: It should have left the other window out of my view until I selected it.
