This could be because of a PROGRAM you have running in the background. Same thing used to happen to me. I was using Earthlink at the time and i found i had to close the "Earthlink Task Panel" before it would let me maximise warcraft. If i didn't it would keep minimizing on me.
Type msconfig in the run box........click services......click the cryptographic services  box.......you may have disabled it.You can also try the Alt+Tab option.Virus scanners
