Summary: Strange Window Placement on Multiple Monitors

Initial Comment:
I am running 2.0.0 beta 3 on Windows XP using multiple
monitors.  The new message window always pops up on the
secondary monitor and "above" the real window area. 
The primary monitor is 19-inch and the secondary is
15-inch placed to the left of the primary monitor. 
Gaim seems to pop up the message window where the
top-left-most edge of the screen would be if I had two
19-inch monitors.  Other applications do this too, but
not as often as Gaim with the apparent lack of
remembering where your last window was placed.  I'm not
sure if this is a Windows issue or a Gaim issue, just
an annoyance for a very small percentage of users, I'm
sure.  Thanks for everyone's great work on Gaim!

This is not a Gaim bug, but a bug in GTK+, the widget toolkit
used by Gaim.  Your bug is being moved to our "gtk bugs" tracker,
where it will be grouped with similar bugs.  When we know a gtk
bug number for this issue, your group number will reflect it.

There is a plugin in the plugins tracker that works around this.
