Win7Pro minimized everything
I use 3 monitors and I just had all windows minimize. I had dragged an email from one monitor to the other and all my windows suddenly minmimzed?!?! I am having to get all those windows back up, manually and it is alot of windows. What caused this and how do I stop it from happening again? There are many many explorer windows and email windows open, excel, too, having to manual get each of them to "restore" is a pain.
does this happen with any email you drag? or only the one?

if the user is running three monitors I think they understand the difference between a closed window and a minimized one.
Also one would assume they know about the location of the "minimize" aka show desktop button.
So I would hope there problem does not lie within simple computer usage

Ooops I was wrong
If minimized:
It is coursted by one of two things.
1) you have shaken around with your mouse while draging a windows - this can be restored by shaking the windows again - and everything pops up in place.
2) you have clicked on the little "botton" at the right side of the clock and date in the right corner of the processline - this is restored by clicking on it again.
If Explorer or some thing crashed it is just hard work.
