windows are becoming unselected

by pink500 Jul 30, 2007 1:27AM PDT

okay i am no sure how to put this--anyone that knows the right term let me know:

here is the problem--
yesterday this started and i haven't changed anything in my system--
the windows will grey out--like its inactive--i'll start typing and it will stop like it switched to another window--but there is no window open--it does this on all programs not just mozilla--

let me know if y'all have any solutions--its making me crazy!!!!!

thanks
val

download ccleaner
and scan for issues
also the wise registry cleaner is one of the free registry cleaning software,and this too would get much help i think.
