    When I type, all of a sudden it quits typing, so I have to click the mouse again to where it was left off.

    When I pull down on my "favoriites" it disapears and I have to pull it back down again.

    The window - screen, seems to flicker ? flash ? for a spilt second.

    any idea's to make this stop ?

    Thanks so much for any help !!
    Ya'll are wonderful people to help others, like me !

    I can only tell you what I think is happening.

    The window you are typing in is the "active window ", something is changing the active window (for example, Alt + Tab will change the active window, but the window should actually change).

    It may be due to the keystrokes you are using, it may possibly be some form of malware. Do you have any keyboard modifying programs installed? (Even Accessibility settings, read about them in Help and Support.)

    Thank You Matt for responding to my post. It seems really odd, it hasn't happened at all today.. like *poof* it stopped doing it all of a sudden... seems really fishy to me ??
