SageTV Client starts fullscreen but no focus

When I pull SageTV Client out of sleep it stays in the background and doesn't assume focus.

How can I make it grab focus, even if I have other windows open?

Ok, got it fixed. I used the registry edit as this is now how XP is supposed to work.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER \Control Panel \Desktop]
ForegroundLockTimeout = 200000 (decimal is the default, which forces that irritating flash in the task bar behavior)
= 0 (decimal means a window can steal focus right away)

I know stealing focus is considered "rude", but as this is a dedicated HTPC client, this action wouldn't occur unless the user wanted it to. I don't think I have other instances of applications throwing up windows which would now kill me, time will tell
