This is driving me nuts.
If I perform a right mouse click on a file or folder to say call up the Info on it then this is fine for the first and second time I do it. However on the third time everything on screen just dissapears. Any Finder windows shut down completey and any other open program is minimized back to the dock, all icons on the desktop dissapear for a couple of seconds including those for all drives, the dock dissapears as does the main menu at the top of the screen. After a second or two it all comes back but I have to re-open any Finder windows.
The problem was particulary bad when I was using the Mighty Mouse but I've now swapped over to an M$ one and although the problem has improved, it now doesnt always do it on the 3rd click, but it is still there.
I'm not even talking about 3 rapid clicks there can be several seconds or longer between each click but, certainly with the Mighty Mouse, the 3rd click almost always guranteed everything dissapearing/minimizing.
Any ideas because it's really, really annoying?
