[quote]It's possible that another process is stealing 'focus' of the mouse cursor....that the 3 seconds of 'inactivity' allows another process to start and the cursor is no longer within the text box.[/quote] I second this possibility, I have been using Drop Plus since seeing this thread yesterday with no issues at all. Windows XP SP3, CursorFX Plus.

2 things; the file name of the progress bar Starcraft 2 .1.bmp may be causing the corrupted file that booskin would not open. also the progress bar does not have the same color pallet as the screen image, they must be the exact same 16 colors used for both.

Reply to Start Menu moves upon mouseover in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

[quote]Half a start menu does not an improvement make.[/quote] Did Jeff not get that fixed in the Beta update, I am still on XP. As far as an improvement, in 1.9 even for some on XP it would not always work. It seems to be more stable in 2.0 at opening the start menu on all OS than 1.9 ever was.

[quote]you should be able to move the dock to all four edges and it stay there.[/quote] Psst, Phiily; it is the start menu from the start menu docklet that is moving not the dock.

[quote]and my head gets sick when i see all the effects everyday in my taskbar[/quote] Not sure what you are referring to as effects, off hand I can think of only a couple skins that have animated taskbars that constantly animate, a couple more that have animated buttons but they only animate on mouse over, other than that all skin are like MS Luna and only change state for buttons when moused over.
