[AT] Way OT Computer Virus question

Hi Paul,

The hand quicker than the eye deal needs a little explaining.
I use a notebook computer that has a touch pad instead of a mouse.
It has the option of being set so that the cursor automatically goes to a 
spot that requires a response.  Once you get used to that it works real well 
and is a big time saver.  The down side is when a new page, pop up, box etc. 
appears on the screen at the exact moment that you try to submit the reply 
to whatever window you are working in.  When that happens sometimes you 
authorize something you didn't mean to do.

I'm really careful with it but it does catch me some times.  This is the 
first time it has ever caused a BIG problem.

Charlie
