In Windows 7, if I launch a program and immediately make its window inactive (e.g. by minimizing or switching windows), it will pop back up after the program has finished loading completely.

This is undesirable. I would like to let a program load in the background without having it steal focus once it is ready. For example, this happens when I launch Photoshop.

Is there a way to disable this behavior?
