MM3 RC4: Party mode password screen invisible? [4171]

MM3 RC4: Party mode password screen comes up behind main screen?

Every once in a while, after I leave MM sitting in party mode for a long time, when I come back and press the button that is supposed to bring up the password screen, nothing happens. It's as if MM is locked up, though it's still playing a song.

I have it set to disable the task manager.

Today I discovered that after pressing the exit party mode button the password CAN be entered, even though the password screen isn't visible. My guess is that some other program had attempted to steal focus, or perhaps tried to display something on the systray while MM had been sitting there, and now the main screen has taken a lower "display order" than the password screen.

I think that the call to the password screen needs to have some code added to insure that it comes to the foreground.

Sorry but I don't have the steps to reproduce. This is WinXP/Pro.
