From: ggurman@cory.Berkeley.EDU (Gail Gurman) Path: cory.Berkeley.EDU!ggurman I've had a similar problem and discovered that it was related to my screen-saver, believe it or not. The SS was supposedly polling mouse input. While in Norton (i.e., NCD) I could click once, but double-clicking froze my system. I don't know if your problem is the same, but if you're using a screen-saver, you might want to try running Norton without it and see what happens. Gail Send mail to: ggurman@cory.Berkeley.EDU
