A competing company Exacq Technologies runs a nice weblog which among other references trade show pictures. Since it’s related and even from ISC West 2007 where our company participated also, I will take a liberty to repost:

WTL CCommandBar and CPropertyShet bug: Windows unexpectedly freeze
Symptoms
When a wizard window (CPropertyShet) is popped up to the screen while CCommandBar’s popup menu is active, the windows lock up, as if SetCapture was called without pairing ReleaseCapture, until the application is reactivated using mouse after activating another application.
Mispaired SetCapture is however not not called from command bar class directly, it is rather called from menu class. Dialogs and message boxes do not have the effect, when popped up menu is automatically closed before modal window appears on the screen.
Solution
The issue is being investigated.
To avoid the problem it is possible to check m_CommandBar.m_bMenuActive that indicates active TrackPopupMenu and avoid showing modal CPropertyShet until menu is complete.
WTL CCommandBarCtrlImpl bug: Assert is raised on right clicking command bar menu
Symptoms
When command bar menu item is right clicked, an assertion window is popped up (see below).
Solution
Exiting in CCommandBarCtrlImpl::DoTrackPopupMenu right before assertion line seems to be fixing the problem.
return FALSE;
}
// HOTFIX: (Alax.Info) Avoid assert on right clicking the menu item
if(s_hCreateHook)
return FALSE;
ATLASSERT(s_hCreateHook == NULL);
