crash if initial window has focus

Hi Gijs, i saw you submitted patch that i had totally forgotten about + thanks
for that and adding tests

I tested in current git, and the "you must be administrator" bug is gone and
now there`s a crash after the file are extracted. Seems to be a windowing bug,
seemingly unrelated to the issue this bugreport was about. Maybe something with
DIALOG_CreateIndirect, bugzilla shows more hits about that (?)

Anyway, I found simple way to get the installer get up and finish (there was
some calls to GetForeGroundWindow just before crash that gave me hint):

- Start the installer and when the initial (extraction-)window comes up, click
somewhere on another window like your terminal or a browser window so that one
gets focus. Then the installer proceeds without crashing. 

If the initial window keeps focus there`a 100% chance of crash, if it looses
focus the intaller starts 100% of the times. 
The installer also starts download files and i stopped when it was searching
for a printer (i do not have one even) 

I attached crashlog for completeness, but this should really be tracked in new
bugreport. I resolve this one as fixed.
