How do I stop focus being stolen from my Microsoft Office Outlook Inbox

112 100+
I have a GUI that I created, that updates every time a new line is added to a log file that I am tailing. If the GUI does not have focus, it is supposed to flash in the toolbar, which it does when I have focus on firefox, putty sessions, etc. This works perfectly fine.


The only time this doesn’t work is when I am looking at my inbox of Microsoft Outlook. The GUI steals focus from Microsoft Outlook, which makes me think that something in the registry is not configured correctly, allowing for focus to be stolen or something is not right in my properties for Microsoft Office Outlook Inbox.
