Please add an option in the game to disable Alt+Tab bringing you to desktop. I can't tell you how many time I've accidentally Alt-Tabbed while using my mic (ALT key) and opening the scoreboard (TAB key) by habit. Starcraft 2 has the option to disable Alt+Tab so NS2 should too. Oh an don't tell me to rebind my talk key, I like it as ALT.

    You can probably use AHK to disable the key combo, that is, if alt is pressed, normal, if tab is pressed, normal, if both are pressed, both act unpressed.

    You can use this method to temporarily disable 'Alt-Tab' while playing the game (I had the same problem and decided to do a quick google, it's worked so far for me).
