Yes - thanks. Disable Firefox security in Tools->Add-Ons and restart Firefox. See if the problem is fixed by doing this.
- For details on how to do this, see Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems
Thanks a lot. I did that and I'll give it a day. I really appreciate the help.
Well, that seemed to work for an hour, but still just flicks off, goes to desktop until I move the mouse. Any other clues? I could live with it, the minorest of aches. Thanks Bob
Problem done. I have to admit, that not only am I old and ugly, I'm stupid!!!!!! I was "parking" the cursor right on that tiny, lower right, "show desktop" button!!!!!~ Man, do I feel dumb. I always used to "park" the thing right in the middle of whatever I was workin on and had to move it so often, I probably wanted it far-far away. I didn't even know there was a "show desktop" button. Windows7??? Thanks so much, I'm sorry to have wasted your time, zzxc.
