Very amusing "bug":) But cripples SPICE´s usage.
I have tested this from 5 different physical machines running Win7/IE,
and this behavior shows itself only on machines with more than one
monitor, or a laptop with another monitor attached .e.g. These guest
tools you both mention, would these be
"http://spice-space.org/download/binaries/spice-guest-tools-0.1.exe"?
And can you install them in a physical machine as well?
cc-ing spice-devel to see if they have insights on your issue
