Default online poker and AIM

yeah so....i was playing on stars or whatever and i get aa. It gets capped preflop and the flop is like 582. However, i am also iming my friend at the same time seeing as poker can be boring....and right when i start clicking out to try and pull up the game window....it just pops up and i must have clicked fold or something by mistake....because the next thing i know i just see my AA go down the drain and into the muck...causing me to be real blown/tilted the rest of the session. Has this happened to anyone else out there? Am i just retarded? Is there a way to make the thing not pop up like that..... responses appreciated.

That [censored] software takes over when it's your turn and are trying to type. So I always end up sending half-sentences that make no sense to my tables.

At least with that situation, there is reasonable doubt you could wind up with the best hand by the river. Wait till the time happens where it is the river, and you know you have the best hand, and accidently hit fold. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

When I fold AA preflop or flop, I just tell myself I woulda got sucked out on, then move on.
