There is currently a very big blind spot when using the mouse. I am unable to select text using the mouse in a particular region of the window, just below the tools bar. This is not happenning with Internet Explorer.

Recently both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

Thanks a lot edmeister! Worked a treat! It was beginning to do my head in. I just hope that Yahoo, or whoever is responsible for the tool, are aware of the problem too.

Thanks again. Shep
