How to make Allways On Top?

Does anyone know if there is a way to make Express Talk Basic always on top so that it never gets covered by some other window? Maybe a command-line command of some sort? I know lots of other soft phones have this feature.

I don't think there is any feature built-in to do that. The closest thing would be "Bring Talk to the front when ringing"

You can however achieve what your asking with third-party programs. I can't think of the name of one off the top of my head, but there are certainly programs out there that let you force certain windows to the top of the order. You can also write your own program to call the Win API function to bring the window to the Talk window to the top of other windows.

Absolutely: ExpressTalk needs a Stay-On-Top option.

It is so frustrating when you get a call, the ExpressTalk pops up, you move the mouse to go answer and ... screw... the ExpressTalk is under all the windows and still busilly ringing away. I don't think I've answered a call in less than 10 rings since the day it was installed (and I had no other apps running).
