Hi Humberto, You are very welcome. I'm glad that was all it was. Other fixes for this kind of behavior can be the blink rate of the cursor or even uninstalling / reinstalling the soundcard driver. Personally, I had this problem & it was the cursor blink rate got changed & I don't have a clue as to how that happened. You are so correct about being a member of a list / group such as this & I'm thankful to be a member as well! Take care. Mike This email was sent from my iBarstool.

You are right, that was it! I feel stupid now for not having thought of it, but that is precisely the reason lists such as this one are so great, it releases mental blocks. I have no idea how that got changed, but am very glad the problem is solved, it was annoying.

I have seen jaws stutter the way you describe, but only when reading. And usually pressing a key like down arrow fixes the problem. But I have never had an action repeated.
