It does not happen here.  I'm on KDE 3.5.10.  I guess you have "Focus 
Stealing Prevention" disabled.  KDE Control Center->Desktop->Window 
Behavior->Advanced->Focus Stealing Prevention Level->Choose at least 
"Low" here.

If you're on something else than KDE, I don't know :P  Look for the 
equivalent of KDE's focus stealing prevention in your WM/DE (if it has one).
