Often, JComboBox problems such as this are caused by the lightweight v
heavyweight components. The behaviour below will happen if your JComboBox
has been added to a heavyweight container.

I think that all Swing components are lightweight ( ie JComboBox ) and all
others not inherited from a Swing component are heavyweight. Is your
container a DecoratedFrame. If so, change to using a JFrame and see if that
helps.
