Hi Robert, I didn't have the problem you're facing but I've experienced the wrong mouse position for any context menu or combo box in java applications. The only thing that helped me is changing the java's version and ensuring that every java application uses it (many apps have their own JRE packages or some scripts that can select a wrong version).
$ java -version java version "1.6.0_45" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode) Hope it helps.
