so far i can not reliably reproduce this behaviour, but randomly altdrags locks 
up my left click. just now this happened to me and after i killed it using the 
taskmanager everything returned to normal.
usually its just that i cant left click then, right click works and after 
bashing on the alt ctrl shift & windows buttons this behaviour goes away.

but this time for some reason that bashing didnt help and when i alt tabbed to 
another windoe and after that pressed ctrl, the current window got minimized. 
except the thunderbird main window every other got minimized by ctrl.

This is happening about once a week btw. i cant really see a pattern, sometimes 
it wont even let me click in taskmanager, sometimes it wont let me type. rather 
weird. maybe a "reset" combo should be implemented? dont know if its possible 
but maybe you could listen to ctrl alt del, reset altdrag and send the ctrl alt 
del back to windows to handle? *shrug*

Fun, this time it would let me switch windows with alt+tab, but the focus would 
stay with the first window i had opened...

I can confirm this behaviour, too. And I have this bug on all my (four) 
machines under Win 7 since a couple of (beta-)versions.

The only things that I configured differently compared to the defaults are
- Focus windows when dragging (yes)
- Scroll inactive windows (yes)
- Middle mouse button (minimize window)
- Scrollwheel (volume)

This bug is annoying, but fortunatly it happens every couple of days only. So 
it's just a small scratch on the surface of this great little helper.

Btw I click all three mouse-buttons (right, middle, left) a couple of times one 
after another with the cursor on a free place on the taskbar to get rid of the 
"locks".

I would be happy to find a new Version of altdrag soon!

Sorry for not responding earlier. New issues belong on GitHub, and it seems I 
no longer receive notifications for this place.

Please click the Esc key the next time this happens, it should resolve it. I've 
had it happen to me a few times, but I haven't found the root cause.
