   In epoch running under openwindows 3 and olvwm3 each time I move
   anywhere near an epoch window, it brings itself to the front of the
   screen. I have nothing in my setup files for ow3 which does this
   and none of my other windows s do this either. Can anyone explain
   why this occurs , and how I can fix it ?

Why?  It's a feature.

How to stop it?  From the Epoch FAQ...

C-3: How do I stop the windows from automatically raising upon entry?
  
  The easiest way to do this, if you're running Epoch 4.0b0 or later, is
  to specify the following in your .emacs file:
  
    (setq auto-raise-screen 'minibuf)
  
  If you're running a version of Epoch prior to Epoch 4.0b0, the
  following code also works:
  
    (setq auto-raise-screen nil)
    (push (function (lambda () (raise-screen (minibuf-screen)))) 
      *select-screen-hook*)
  
  Both of the above solutions still make the minibuffer raise when an
  Epoch edit window is entered; if you don't want the minibuffer to
  raise itself either, just do the following instead:
  
    (setq auto-raise-screen nil)
