Msgbox (VB 6.0) becomes modeless after a few clicks on the form

I am facing this strange problem... Hope someone would be able to help....

This is how it is... I am displaying a message box (modal) in a form ... and it pops up as a modal dialog but after a few mouse clicks on the form it becomes modeless.... And this happens only when I the program executable is invoked... if i run the project in debug mode it works perfectly fine.... have seen a similar problem with the VC++ afxmessagebox, and the problem got solved when a messagebox was used instead..... any ideas...................
