Unable to click into boxes after ~ 30min surfing

S

Steve Hawkins

I previously thought this was a 'google' problem, but am finding it to be a
general thing. After maybe half an hour's browsing - as in when looking for
a product and comparing prices - I loose the ability to click into boxes (to
click into Amazon or B&Q search or registration boxes for example). I have
found various dodges to get into them: right click; tab; enter; select all,
but these all stop working in the end. Generally it is back to normal when
I start a new session, but the earlier occurrence, which resulted in the
google front end adopting multiple languages, lasted several days before
mysteriously clearing.

Does anyone know what causes this?

Regards,

SteveH
