| | Desktop Oddity An odd thing occurred on my desktop and was wondering if anyone else has experienced it. While I was in Windows Mail I double clicked a message in a news group and nothing happened. The mouse pointer was sluggish but I managed to get to the close button and closed it. Then on my desktop appeared 2 windows without borders. One had my desktop wallpaper and the other was a blank blue background with the name a program I had open but minimized to the task bar. Weird. I went to right click the taskbar and click Task Manager but when I right clicked the windows vanished. I can remember a while back when all of a sudden my desktop was filled with several windows one behind the other. My scans for Viruses came up negative and my system seems to be running very well. Any ideas? James |

| | Re: Desktop Oddity Look for an icon in the task bar called 'Switch Between Windows" and click on it. Is that what you are seeing?
