  povwin does strange things to other applications

PPOVwin does strange things to other running applications when
finishing/starting a rendering. This is specially visible and annoying when
rendering an animation with many quick-traced frames.

Observed problems :
+ povwin steals or gives focus at each frame ;
+ povwin closes (not minimises or hides, but closes) other windows or
applications (observed very often with winhelp, even other applications
helps ; win explorer windows ; acdsee32 and display properties)
+ povwin prevents screensaver to start or interrupts screensaver (apparently
randomly).
