That makes it sound like perhaps it is something weird happening with the keyboard. Maybe something like CONTROL key from CONTROL+ALT+DELETE 'sticking' or seeming to stick from Pivot's perspective. >> On 17 August 2011 22:07, JohnRodey <[hidden email]> wrote: >> Do you see the same effect if you use WINDOWS+L to lock the screen? > > *No, it appears to behave fine when I use Windows+L.

Are you are using a non-virtualised XP installation? ie, a normal install of XP on a PC rather than an installation into a virtual machine of some kind. >> Can you provide some version numbers for these browsers, as well as >> java version? > > *Firefox 3.6.13 > IE 8.0.6001.18702 > Java 1.6.0_22* Great, that gives us something to compare against.
