Is there a Dept. of Annoying Bugs? :)
Running Build 4128: Guest OS Vista

Put Guest OS (Vista) to sleep from inside the guest. I recommend "Sleep" from the Vista shutdown sub menu.

Wait for Vista to sleep.

Click on an OSX window (say like Safari)

Notice annoying Parallels popup asking me if I want to restart VM.

The popup does not happen if on secondary monitor.

The popup does not happen if I put Guest to sleep from Parallels Action Menu.

Go Fix :)

Some background: Since Parallels seems to consume quite a few CPU cycles when idle, I was writing a little utility to pause the VM shortly after I closed all my (foreground) Windows apps. Might be a nice option to add to the Parallels tools....
