Prevent moving focus to another firefox window

I develop in ColdFusion and keep a FF debug window open. When I navigate to a page the CF debugger refreshes the content of the debug window.

Prior to upgrading to 3.6.12 this morning, the debug window did NOT acquire focus, and remained in the background until I wanted it. With 3.6.12, the debug window always jumps to the foreground.

Is there a configuration option to prevent this?

(FWIW, IE always has done the same thing, and it's extremely annoying.)

Does it still happen if you start Firefox in Safe mode ?

See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems

Your above posted system details show multiple Java Console extensions.
You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions and disable the Java Quick Starter extension, you do not need them to run Java applets.

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Java#Multiple_Java_Console_extensions

Sorry - I replied to this in email back on Nov 3. Here it is again:

Yes, it acts the same way in safe mode. I have also implemented your other recommendations. Thanks.
