Wouldn't a WindowFocusListener be more suitable for this problem?

You'll be notified when the user makes your application the active one, 
and when the user makes a different application the active one.
No need to watch for MouseEvents unless you want the moving of the mouse 
outside the frame without activating a different application/window  to 
already submit the data
