Long-time user of SM products to replace 'the other guys' stuff.

Upgraded from SM2.0.14 to 2.3 couple of days ago. Since then, wife has complained about something I've just verified and found reproduceable: If a prevously active SM window doesn't have focus when the Win screen saver unloads so you can see the desktop, the SM window is effectively blank. Just very few random components visible. If you pass your mouse icon over the empty areas, the expected icons/windowpane elements reappear. If you go to the top of the window and click, all elements reappear and everything works.

At first I thought it was down to the screen saver options, but now I can reproduce it at will:

Leave SM browser or mailnews with focus; Lock the keyboard. Unlock the keyboard and everything is fine.

Now click on the desktop and then lock the keyboard. Unlock the keyboard and the SM window which did have focus but lost it when you clicked the desktop, isn't re-drawn, at least not immediately. It makes no difference how long you let the PC sit between lock-unlock actions, behavior the same.

System performance monitoring show no apps trying to hog resources and so load the system down. The upgrade to SMv2.3 is the only software to be installed in a long time, and it's only since that install that this has manifested.

Not a show-stopper, but definitely an annoyance.
