You have probably enabled Google Talk support. Read the notes about it in the Configurator Manual. Disabling GTalk support will fix the problem.

QUOTE
This integration is disabled by default, since it can cause potential problems with stealing focus from other applications. This problem occurs when Google Talk is minimized into system tray, however I was able to almost overcome this issue by a hack that immediately returns focus to your application, but you will still notice your window loosing focus for a moment and then gaining it back. If it bugs you, don't minimize Google Talk to tray or disable this integration. There is no any better solution at the moment.

Another side effect of the integration is that it's using mouse and keyboard events emulation. For example, if you are away and your screensaver engages, then song changes in player, AMIP updates GTalk status, Windows thinks that you typed something and screensaver turns off. This will also affect other applications that set away mode basing on last keyboard/mouse event.
