I saw that too. I lost those gadgets, and had to hold down ALT while I clicked in the middle of windows to move them asside. I had a confirmation dialogue box waiting for me behind another window. The computer hadn't frozen, but I had things in the way that weren't responding to input. The top-of-screen menubar still worked. </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> Well, it really froze with me. Even the keyboard froze; caps lock and num lock didn't respond. It has happened to me too... but this is different. <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE> <PRE> I've not uninstalled/re-installed things to sort it out.
