Hi,

I think this came with a 'windows update' A very annoying  feature. When i click to activate something (eg a flash video) I have to click the actual screen of the video/window/menu before I can use it. And it says "click to use and activate this control" ok its only one extra click but its really annoying, when you're at a forums etc. Anyone know how to switch it off? Thanks.

I had this exact same (annoying) problem, a friend of mine showed me a patch MS had put out to fix it.  If you run Windows XP w/SP2, the patch is here.

To choose another version of Windows, or to read more about it, here's the Knowledge Base link.

Hope that helps.
