I had the same problem and found a fix for it. Go to TextPad's preferences then view. There should be a checkbox showing 'Stay on top of other windows'. Uncheck that, click OK and it Alt+Tab should work again while in TextPad.

Here is the link I found the solution at:
http://superuser.com/questions/342913/textpad-windows-issue

I wonder how that got checked though. It could be part of the unregistered version's nag screen.
