I recalled that it would disable biMinimize but reading my
comments in the code tells me that that may not be the exact
problem.

I can tell you for certain that it's not an issue with the VCL
(Gambit helped me track that down) and that it is in fact a
problem with Windows. Since I developed it on an XP machine,
I would suggest that you assume that I was inaccurate with my
description of the problem and take another look, being sure
to leave the first instance restored and testing outside of
the IDE.
