I suspect this problem relates to programs created with Borland Delphi.

Programs created with Delphi have a hidden window (main application window) that is used for the taskbar entry, most 3rd party programs that interact externally with Delphi programs aren't very compatible.

I suspect the reason why the Site Manager isn't effected is because I override the window create procedure and tell it to assign the parent to the main FlashFXP (visible) window. All other windows use the default which assigns the parent to the hidden window.

Not all windows are created the same way, the backup/restore windows are modal windows.

Not all child forms can have a parent of the main FlashFXP window, I will make an attempt to switch all that can handle it. In doing so it's quite possible that a new type of problem may arrise.
