Hi Barry,
Did you install anything new just prior to doing the OS X 10.6.8 Combo update?
Have you tried resetting PRAM and NVRAM http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379 ?
Another suggestion,
Boot in Safe mode, run Repair Permissions in Disk Utility.
Then restart normally.
Or better still: Repair
Thanks Ronni and Robert
I will try Ronni's suggestion first, it will have to be tomorrow. As the
problem seems not to happen immediately on start up it may be a while before I
can be happy it is resolved but I will keep in touch.

Hi All --
-- My sister-in-law asked me to look at a problem on her fairly new
iMac, and although I was able to sort something out, use of the iMac
was greatly hindered by unwanted appearance of drop-down menus. For
example, trying to log into gmail, if you clicked on the box for
username, up

Well, with Apple cancelling the MobilMe services, June 2012, for web hosting

Hi David,
That sounds as though it has everything to do with the keyboard. Rather than a
standard mouse click, you seem to be getting a Control mouse click. Try a
different keyboard temporarily to see if things change. If the problem goes
away it could be a stuck key or a hardware issue.
Hi David,
This could be the mouse … Go to System Preferences keyboard and mouse and
reset the buttons on the mouse.
What mouse is your sister-in-law using?
Cheers,
Ronni

• organise free web hosting at http://www.freeservers.com/. You get fairly
reasonable ads added to your site, and there is a page size limit, but it's
free.
* develop your site locally with iWeb

After this did you re-run Disk Repair until NO errors are reported as in my

Yes I did run Disk Repair a second time and no errors were reported. I then
ran Repair permissions as you suggested but have not run it again since
starting in normal mode but I will do it now.

Thanks Ashley
It was my intention to run the Hardware Test if the current suggestions from
Ronni were not successful. I don't want to try the shot gun approach yet and
try too many things at once as if the problem is solved I will have no idea as
to what solved it

My sincere apologies to anyone who received a Linked In request from me.
It went out to my whole address book WAMUG!!
Without my knowledge I don't yet know why or how.
I will be contacting Linked In to find out how it came about.
I am very pissed off!

Hi Ken,
No problem about the Linked In request. I was just wondering, were the requests
sent from a Mac or a Windows computer?

Hi Ken
No worries mate, I appreciate your concern.
I did notice in the business section of today's west and article on LinkedIn,
and I assume it is the same system you are referring to. Looks like very big
business, especially for those who want everyone else to know about thier own
business

Hi Ronni,that explains it.To me it seems a common mistake occurring onLinkedIn judging by those links.PerhapsLinkedIn has something to answer for, as their opt in options are not clear for all users. They should have a dialogue box pre-warning the user that an auto mailing invitation will be sent
Don't feel bad, Ken. It seems that you are the victim of a deliberate deception
by Linked In.

Hi Carlo,
I would not call this a “Deliberate deception” by LinkedIn. Sure, Ken is not
the first person to have made this error.
At the bottom of one of the links I previously sent is this explanation how Ken
can stop the “Reminder emails” being sent out to everyone in his Address Book …
