Opera window not coming up when clicking link in other application

Hi all,

Since I upgraded to Opera 10.50 (and still ongoing in 10.53) I have the following problem:

Whenever Opera is minimized and I click a link in another application, like in my Email program or in Excel or whatever, I can see in the taskbar that Opera loads the page, but the Opera window doesn't come up. It stays minimized!

Does anyone else have that, too? Isn't it annoying? I can't imagine that this is on purpose, no other browser behaves like that.

I have the same problem on my laptop computer. However on the desktop computer this rather annoying problem is not present.

Both run Opera 10.53 on Windows XP SP3.

I wonder if there is a registry tweak for this?

Not quite the same problem, but if I want to view an attachment in a webmail and click Download File> Open (with Opera) the same thing happens, or more precisely nothing happens. However if I right click then click Open in New Tab the attachment opens in the new tab perfectly.
