Subject: RE: Tech: How to Disable XP auto select?
Thanks for that John. I take your point on board but I have to say I have worked on several laptops over the past week that have exhibited this particular behaviour. The laptops came to me for various small jobs but all had virus/spyware infestations that I had to remove. As it was a priority to get the laptops back to the users I really only noted the anomalous selection behaviour and worked around the problem. I know it certainly persisted after the cleaning of viruses and malaware.
Ratty mice, Java and useability issues make sense but not on several machines nor on the almost virgin XP install under Boot Camp on a new iMac at home that I know is not virus infected.
Please bear with me till tomorrow when I can put some more time into doing a little more testing and can report again..... family issues are a priority just at the moment.
Cheers Andrez
