IE isn't brought to focus if open already #10

Not sure this is a BrowserSelect issue, it may be a Microsoft issue, but: when IE is open already, and minimized or behind another window, it does not come to the forefront when BrowserSelect hands it a URL. Other browsers tested (Chrome, Firefox) act as expected and come forward. This was shown via desktop shortcuts, Win+R run field, and from Outlook email, on two different Windows 7 computers. Thank you, BrowserSelect is a great program!

thanks for your report. i think it might be related to commit 713edf9. i'll see if i can create a patch to fix it. i don't personally use IE much so sometimes i fail to notice these things before releasing ...
