FC2 -- New windows created at the bottom of the stack

[Jonathan Ryshpan]

The title says most of it.  When a new window is created in an
application, say by double clicking a message in Evolution or center
clicking a link in Mozilla, or however, it frequently opens at the
bottom of the window stack, so that it's invisible till brought up to
the sop of the stack.  When this happens, the application's box in the
taskbar changes from gray with black letters to blue with white
letters.  This seems to happen pretty randomly; sometimes windows are
created at the top of the stack, sometimes at the bottom; though never
in the middle.

I like my new windows to be created at the top of the stack.  Does
anyone know what's going on?  Or how to get windows to be created at the
top of the stack?
