Just thought I'd post a final update - I don't think there *is* a way to stop this from happening, so I guess I'll just have to be satisfied with...
"System Details" updated - thanks for all the info, Neil (including speccy - I love having all that info in one screen!). I've tried decreasing...
I just discovered how I'm triggering the Task View: 'swiping' my finger inward from the left edge of the touchpad! I can replicate the action...

Thanks for the reply, Tallin! I currently have LogMeIn installed on my stepmother's WinXP computer, and that is certainly one of my ultimate goals...
Sadly (for my stepmother), her mother tongue is Japanese, and most people can't understand her English because it's so heavily accented. My plan...
