Numpad "Del" key hides everything (including the "Message Box").

Perhaps there is a value that specifies what visually elements are "on top" of others and you can then put the box on top of the menu bar?

I don't think there is an actual mod that repositions it,as it depends on the resolution you are using.
It is an easy fix by changing one line in "menu_1024_768" [G3F I237] you need to change the last two values in the "zone" line. My resolution is 1600x1200 and I've changed "zone" to:-
Zone= 256 764 350 94 0 1 0x3F000000 0.25 0 0x3F2A0000 0 0 50 -1050

The last two values (50 -1050) determine the position of the message box, the 50 is the horizontal value and the -1050 is the vertical value.
This is for 1.3 if you are not using 1.3 the section you need is [G3F I229]
