Hello, thanks for the report.
What method are you using to scrollback? I presume you're using the
scroll-bars or shift-pageup?
If so, yes, it is the screen status bar refresher that's bringing your
focus back down to the bottom.
Honestly, shift-pageup isn't the best way to scroll back when using
screen. In that case, you're using a feature of putty which is not
really compatible with screen.
Rather, I suggest that you screen's scrollback mode.
Hit F7, and then you can pageup, pagedown, arrowup, arrowdown, search
and navigate using vi-like syntax, etc. This also works on a per-window
basis in screen. So you could do a 'find .' in one screen window, and a
'ls -alF /lib' in another window, and F7 would scroll each of those
window's scrollback correctly. Putty (or gnome-terminal or konsole)
would instead scroll incorrectly, just barfing back at you the last text
they saw (mixing up the contents of each).
