Glitched right click and drop-down menus.

Guest

I do not know how to explain this properly... Either way, I have a link to an
appropriate picture of my problem.

This is my first picture is my right-click menu. It is generated transparent
and I have to run my cursor over each option manually before it is visable.

http://idproject.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/glitch2.JPG

This second picture is my drop-down menu from MS Paint after I saved the
first screenshot. Yet again, it's generated transparent, and I have to go
through each option highlighting one-by-one to see them.

This is my right-click menu taken from MS Paint (You can see where I wanted
to get it over both the canvas an the boundry) when I havn't highlighted
anything. This is a biiiig problem, cuz it's really annoying me.

What is causing it, and how can I fix it?

Right-click is slow or weird behavior caused by context menu handlers
