- If a task was running at 100% CPU and another task did

- Description
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
- WTFPatch5 corrects the bug in Intuition's WindowToFront
- and WindowToBack routines. The bug causes the machine to freeze when
- a window pops to the front while the user is moving an icon.
-
- The patch works by making Intuition drop all icons before
- performing the WindowToFront/Back.
-
- The patch is installed by copying it to your c: directory and
- including a 'WTFPatch5' statement in your start-up sequence. Make
- sure you remove any reference to the previous version of the
- patch (they should not be run together).
