Chip,
Try disabling your touchpad. I have to do this on any laptop I use since
the stupid thing always ends up clicking me into other windows.

Steve

Richard,
I want to see if your new problem is the same as the one I have on my
laptop:
Do you often hear the word "left", and then find the text you've been
typing is all scrambled, because the insert pointer has jumped all
around, and you've been typing different bits into different locations
of the message or of the file?
I have been intermittently plagued by a problem like this, and it has
the feel as if someone has been grabbing the mouse pointer and
clicking all around in the window I'm working in. hearing the word
"left" randomly spoken is my only clue.
I thought this was a malfunction in the mousepad of my laptop, but
maybe not if you're having the exact same problem.
thanks.
Chip

*Subject:* WE7.1 AND WESERV.EXE
Hi,
After stating categorically last night that I was having few
problems, I've now hit one and am regretting tempting fate! <smile>
This morning, I installed an update to the Webbie package and,
since then, something appears to be grabbing focus every few
seconds, eg as though a process is kicking into life in the
background. For example, when in Outlook 2007, both whilst
reading a message or simply on the message list, the word
"graphic" will be spoken periodically. When in Windows Explorer
and arrowing up or down a list of files, the file onto which I'm
arrowing doesn't speak but some other information is spoken. At
this point, the only applications which are running are Outlook
2007, Live Messenger and Windows Explorer -- as well, of course,
as WE7.1!
I've unloaded WE and loaded another screenreader and looked at the
running processes in Task Manager and see that WESERV.EXE is present.
Is this process connected with WE, please, and, if so, should it
still be loaded/running when WE isn't? Alternatively, I've seen
some references from a Google search suggesting it may be a trojan
etc.
This is under XP Home, SP3.
Any suggestions gratefully received before I go ahead with various
remedies, eg removing the WESERV.EXE process and/or uninstalling
Webbie.
Thanks in advance.
