I noticed the full screen issue myself when I started playing recently. I discovered that what's happening when you're in full screen is that the clicks you make are making it all the way to the desktop. So, for example, when I clicked on the EQ button in the lower left corner to bring up the menu in game, it minimized EQ and launched Internet Explorer, since the IE pinned task bar icon was directly behind the EQ button in-game. The IE pinned icon somehow received the click event, instead of (or in addition to) the game window. This happened for any icon that could receive click events on the desktop.
I kinda suspect this is a problem specific to Win Vista and forward. The OS probably changed the way window z-index and/or event propagation works since EQ Titan was created, and as a result it changes EQ Titan's behavior. I'm not sure there'd be an easy solution for this, so I ended up just learning to play in windowed mode (which, for some reason, doesn't have this problem).
