Try this ...

If you immediately click OK for the first dialog, then wait, the second dialog only appears briefly, not for the desired 4 seconds. Wha???? Something's wrong! Any suggestions?


The problem is not related to the first dialog box, the delay and "giving up after.." seem to be linked.. if you change the delay to 2 seconds, you'll notice that the dialog stays active for a further two seconds.. Why? dunno.. But it's not your first dialog..
