Firefox will come to the front while working on other programs
Hello,
On my PC, whenever I have Firefox open but am working in a different program (say Outlook or Word), Firefox will force itself to be the active window. I am not selecting anything with Firefox and all of the sudden, it will take over and be the active screen even after I minimize it.
Thank you for any help you can offer!

Did you notice anything changed in the Firefox window? Was the browser doing anything at the time? Sometimes, a program will jump up when something happens.
You might also ask your question here; https://support.microsoft.com
Is the Shockwave Flash plugin used in the window that comes up to front?
You can try to set the Flash plugin to "Ask to Activate" on the about:addons page ("3-bar" menu button or Tools -> Add-ons -> Plugins)
Thank you both for your responses.
@FredMcD It doesn't seem to matter what page I have open. There is no dialog box that comes up which would active the window and it just opens to whatever tab was previous open which has been different websites so it's not the same website every time
@cor-el I will have to see, but I don't think so beause if I were to have just one tab open and it be on the home page which is the Momentum plugin, it will still pop up and come to the front. To my knowledge, that home page doesn't use Flas.
It makes me think it is something with Firefox globally since the webpage doesn't seem to be the trigger. I also don't know why it would happen on my PC but not my Mac since I typically have the same webpages open for work on both
As a test, open the browser to about:blank and then drop it to the taskbar.
