Screensaver closes application

C

Christopher

I am running XP Home Edition SP2 and for 10 months everything is fine
[within reason]

In the past few weeks, no matter what screensaver I use, when I move the
mouse to deactivate the screensaver, the last application I was using -
closes.

If I have 4 or 5 browser windows open, the last one closes. This also
happens with word, excel etc. With Firefox, as it needs to ask to close
windows, the confirmation window is there which I have to click twice.

If no windows or applications were open when the screensaver activated, then
upon return to the PC, the box is there asking for confirmation to standby,
turn off or restart windows.

The software is totally up to date.
