Hi Frederico,
The Alert is pop uped after some time interval. For
first time it is ok, i.e. 3 seconds, but after that it vanishes much before
3 seconds, many times less than 1 second and sometimes it just flashes,
can't be seen.
My concept of timer is not that clear, It will be great if u
provide some timing snipeet using On Enter Frame.

There is no point in knocking the "closed Windows" when the door is "Open".
Open your eyes, use open source software.
