IE 7 -tabs, or any IE really - how to control what is on top?

I often have many windows (now tabs) open with IE. I will start something on one tab and move on to the next to do something while the first loads. Or even switch to a different program, window, something while waiting for something else to complete. How do I stop Windows and IE from deciding to promote a window or tab on its on?

download and install TweakUI from microsoft:

among other power-user settings there is an option 'prevent applications from stealing focus' which should help a bit. Note that I don't say 'solve completely'; this is because the window system, of, um, windows is broken in some places, especially the application focus area. It annoys the ***** out of me, too.
