This is absolutely normal. 
This is how sighted folks change the label of the icon by clicking on the
text label.
Its not only for  your system, in fact I think Win 95 or even earlier has
such function.
Why not you just hit enter on the icon or the shortcut then using the numpad
single click?

Subject: num pad slash edit box

Hi Listers,
Using WE HP 32 WE 7.5

Has anyone come accross         this strange problem or is it just my
system?

While on the Desktop, if an icon is selected with the num pad keys, say 
Firefox, then pressing the left click key once will open an edit box. 
 From this edit box, the name of the icon can be changed.  It is like F2 
had been pressed on the icon.

Pressing the slash or left click twice will open the icon as it should.

This has only commenced in the past few days.  This has been tested with 
WE not loaded and with NVDA but the edit box does not open.

Although WE says edit box and it functions as an edit box, the edit box 
is not visible on the screen.

Anybody got any comments or suggestions?
Thanks
Neville.
