    Active window keeps becoming inactive window

    The mouse isn't doing anything when I'm typing. This issue also occurs when I'm using the mouse alone. I forgot to mention I've got the MS Wireless Optical Desktop Pro set. Maybe it has something to do with that, but I'm not sure.

    Active window keeps becoming inactive window

    I don't know why or what's causing this problem, while using an application, the window would suddenly become inactive while I was typing or doing whatever, and then become active again after a few seconds and repeat itself over and over. This happens quite frequently. I've run antivirus and...

I then thought it may be the google toolbar I use as there is an...
