OMG this is driving me insane...

Anyone ever have this happen:

When using IE6, some other program will overlap it (incoming email in outlook, message in yahoo messenger), and after that, the keyboard stops working in IE. I can still type in the URL bar and so forth, but I can no longer use the arrow keys to scroll up and down in the browser window. It doesn't help to shut down all instances of IE either... new windows exhibit the same behavior. It stays this way until I reboot. I'm gonna lose my mind if it keeps up, I use the arrow keys to scroll threads in ATOT! aaaaaaaaaaah! Any ideas?

CTRL -ALT - DLT and check your open processes. Shut down iexplore.exe. Then reopen IE and tell if it works.

Buy a mouse with a scroll wheel.
