[Dx4win] Confused About Spot Prioritization

I guess I really don't know how to make the spot prioritization work for
me.  I have the following problems:

1.  I am working to increase the confirmed band count (i.e. 5 band DXCC
is a goal).  I have the alert unconfirmed country checked on the packet
preferences, yet I see unconfirmed country/band combinations show up in
priorities 1,3 and 5.  I thought that they would show up as priority 1.
Clearly I do not know how to make it work for me.  See also the next one
which really tends to mess up the screen when there is a lot going on.

2.  Priority 2 seems to dominate the screen.  I am not interested in it
right now and don't know how to get it off the screen or at least out of
the way.  I have to make the spot window almost full height on a 19 inch
monitor and the proirity 2 spots frequently push ones I want off the
screen unless I manually delete them.  Deleting spots over 2 hours old
helps a bit, but doesn't solve the problem when things are active.  

What am I doing wrong and how do I configure to get what I want?

Thanks
