They set different titles for active window, and minimized and/or inactive window. Say, you wanna track some progress with a progress bar/percentage. When window is active, you can track it upfront, but when it's minimized, the only way to tell is an icon in taskbar. -- WBR, Andrey Repin (anrdae...@freemail.ru) 11.05.2012, <12:50> Sorry for my terrible english...
