My computer seems to have developed a sense of humer. It now likes to play "Hide And Go Seek" with my directories, and this is getting a little annoying. This is the problem: I click on a drawer and it disappears to go hide. I swear I here a faint giggle at this time. It seems to move the the drawer that I click on into the last drawer that I clicked on. I've check for vruses and found none. I haven't been doing anything new except for a little AI programing (I wish I could take the credit for the sense of humor), and no new software has been installed. I'm running under WB release 1.3.2 version 34.28. The comic in question is a A500 with an Impact Series II 52 Meg. HD from GVP. (Treat it nice and this is what I get?) So, if anyone out there can give me a clue as to the cause, or the solution I can give this comedian his last laugh. Thanks John

John, I think you've run into the ghost bug of the 1.3.2 release of WB, where drawers/directories can disappear in to themselves like a black whole… I'm not sure, but I think this was corrected in 1.3.3, however, it would be in your best interest to upgrade to WB 2.x.

Thanks Michael, I've been planing to upgrade, I guess I should stop putting it off. Thanks again, take care. John
