    Is there any similar app around to test?
    This one doesn't work if you try to set size of PuTTY terminal windows.

    There's no other program like it. Hands down the best way to deal with programs that steal focus or popup in your face!

    Not very useful, since it only allows you to specify window titles for targeting, and not class names. How ridiculous is this? Many times, child windows will have the same title, but a different class, as their parent. Many times, window titles are totally dynamic, and don't have the application name in them at all. Many times, window titles simply aren't unique. What a joke.

    Seems to do what it says it'll do. And, hopefully, is less glitchy than Actual Windows Guard.
