I had something wierd happen a couple of times last night that I can't
understand. I was on my Toshiba Laptop which uses XP.
I was doing something in IE and hit a couple of keys and this square showed
up in the center of my screen about half the size of the screen that had a
bunch of Icons in it - some program icons - some document icons. It had
icons at each corner (the icon for "My Computer" was on the top left and a
large yellow star was at the bottom right - can't remember what was on the
other 2 corners).
When it shows up there is no way to access it with the mouse and when the
pointer goes behind the square it disappears.
There is a message on the bottom that says something like: "slide along the
touch pad to select a program". It then starts the program you selected and
disappears. You can then just quit the program. But that is the only way
to get rid of it.
This happened about 3 times last night and have no idea what it is or where
it came from and would like to make sure it doesn't happen again.
Anyone know what it is?
Thanks,
Tom
