Hi

I guess, you can achieve by using some javascript and actionscript to 
detec idle timeout, generally it's done by checking if mouse-pointer 
doesn't move or no key strokes is pressed for some time (timeout - 
defined by you).

Good news is Flex already has an event FlexEvent.IDLE, perhaps that can 
be used.

You might have to do the similar thing in JavaScript, if your 
application is part of a hybrid-application (a lot of html  component + 
flex app)?

I am sure there is a an API to minimize IE, the way I did long time back 
(2003), moved IE to offstage coordinates. When user clicked on Taskbar, 
you get event in JS and you move it back. Look out for a better way, I 
am sure there is one.

Safari/FireFox has been doing it for a while, good to know IE does it too.
