wierd opera problem by Helgon 2003-11-06 08:54:18
I've encountered a rather odd problem with opera.
All the sudden opera (or windows) decided that my left mouse button should be leftclick anymore, it should be back
My universal scroll button didn't scroll any more, it just showed the scroll pointer(with the normal mouse pointer on top) and didn't react to any mouse movments.
My minimize button didn't do anything.

And it all went back to normal when i tabbed to another program and back again.

It has never happend to me before, but it disables the scrollbutton in opera every now and then (which also is solved by tabbing out and in again.

On a related note, earlier today i had a somewhat similar problem with windows, it kind of froze the computer, when i tried to tab the tabwindow poped up only to disapair half a second later without tabbing to a new program. I could move the mouse but i couldn't click on anything... That time the solution was to bring up the taskmanager by pressing ctrl-alt-del... and all was well.

Is my computer going crazy?
is it time to reinstall again?

I'm using WinXP and opera 7.11
I'm also running Folding@home, could that be the problem?
couse it does disturb those yellow textsquares that popup when i hover the mouse over something in the taskbar
