It's happening on 2 different machines so a reinstall does not seem to be necessary. I have no other problems except after the use of the back button and then only if the back button on the quick access bar is used. Same problem 2 machines different and separate installations. Same corruption? I think not.
To me it looks like problem code behind the back button. But what i cannot say or what triggers it to happen I cannot say. All I can say it has the appearance of not reading the mouse position and click event correctly or the number of such events correctly.
