To use ClickToFront, not only do you have to double click the window to bring it to the front, but you also have to hold in Left Alt on the keyboard at the same time.
I use MultiCX instead for my ClickToFront feature. It's better as it does what it says on the tin... it double clicks windows to front, and doesn't require a key combination.
In the tooltypes you can set QUALIFIER=NONE and dump click to front in wbstartup and it will work all the time.
i have always used it this way.
