I have a three monitor set up. I have Thunderbird running in the right monitor. My main monitor is the middle one. Dialogs, such as Spell check, Activity Monitor always show up in the main window (not the one with Thunderbird) in the upper left hand corner.

It happens on Windows Vista and Windows 7 Professional.

I have Thunderbird version 24.3.0

Some dialogs when moved, stay moved. Others do not. The ones that frustrate me are those that are Centered and therefore show up split across my two monitors.
