What version of Lotus Notes are you talking about? By the instant 
messaging client, are you talking about Sametime Connect?

I'm running Lotus Notes 8 with JFW 9 or JFW 10 with no additional 
scripts and I'm not having the trouble you're describing. I'd suggest 
taking a look at the options in File -> Preferences ... -> Sametime 
Accessibility and Notifications. This is assuming you're talking about 
Notes 8.
