Hello All.

On occasion, _apparently_ some backgound task (perhaps a VDM) on my BBS machine 
causes the machine to become somewhat non-responsive. (I say 'apparently' 
because I really don't have a handle on what's happening.)  If I click on any 
icon on the Desktop, it presents the properties of the icon, rather than 
launching the associated program.  Same with icons for the running, minimised 
programs; clicking on the brings up a Properties window.  Only way out of it 
that I've been able to come up with is a three-finger salute.  Any ideas?

Best regards,
Marc
