It's fixed. Well sort of. I turned off the option for "Focus follows mouse." I'm not getting anymore annoying yellow flashing warcraft icons. I still think there should be an option in Windows to turn those alerts on/off but it's not driving me insane any longer thank God.
Yup, I'm seeing this, with 'Focus follows mouse' on -- which I vastly prefer compared to having to click the window to in order to click in the game (two clicks if it is unfocused, one click of it is focused == bad juju).
Had no luck finding the part of the Control Panel metioned in the previous post in this thread.
I did turn off the taskbar's 'always on top' and that at least keeps it hidden wihle it is flashing it's yellow/orange 'OMG your wow window changed' notification. And the keyclone 'always on top' combined with 'focus follows mouse' will keep the taskbar buried during play. I'll try a session with it set like this to see how it goes. Happens on both Vista and Win7 for me, btw.
Doing my best to get motivated for the WoW Headless Horseman mount hunt of 2013... so far failing. and now in 2018, let's see about those HH mounts! [Edit: Actually got an HH mount in 2018... on separate account 6. One to go! In 2019, my last BNet accout, the main one, got the HH mount. End of an era.]
