So here's an interesting problem, related to - if not directly caused by - Java on Vista.

When you say "switch to/from", do you mean alt+tabbing
in/out? (I'm asking because you mentioned that the application
is running full-screen - I'm assuming it's "real" full-screen
mode).
Or did you just mean "maximized" window?

Any thoughts?
Dmitri has suggested I try a different Java app and the latest build of 6uN,

Does the problem occur when you only have one screen (1600x1200)?
Which of the two screen is your primary screen?
As I don't have any other Java apps that I routinely run, I'm willing

You can try one of these simple demos for a start (SwingSet would
be preferable):

None of them enter full-screen mode though.
