"Wait for the application to Respond"

[Goldberg]

All,

Have a problem with Windows 7 and the above message...

Happens far too often and is annoying.. It's just like the XP 'Program is not responding' but the screen has a white overlay.

The programs eventually come back, Windows is just been too informative!

There must be a way to turn this off... Does anyone know if possible?

surely not WIndows!? I'm so glad those days are long passed for me!

I get this with XBMC when trying to shut it down sometimes, I click cancel then close the next box and it closes down. Although if you did the same it might actually close your app, I'm not sure if my 'method' allows the operation I intended or just closes the 'unresponsive' app.
