I've been having trouble with my screen refreshing on me.
I'm a fast typist, but not all together accurate and I use the BACKSPACE key, probably ever other word - sometimes letter.
These two things are making me crazy. My screen will refresh on me in the middle of my typing something (in quick reply at the bottom of the thread) and kicks my cursor to the top. Because I'm typing quickly and then hit backspace key my browser, I.E., goes back to the screen I was at before...sometimes 2 or 3 screens back, depending on how many clicks of the backspace I hit. Thus, losing all that I've written.
This only happens on LBT, that I know of...I have a livejournal account that doesn't refresh itself when I'm posting to it and I haven't noticed any auto-refresh when I'm browsing other sites.
How can I turn that off?
I keep telling myself that I'll type out my responses in Word, then copy and paste, but I am insane and keep doing the same thing over and over again, thinking - this time I'll catch it and won't lose my post!

Do you have a laptop or desktop? I have a laptop, so when I type, I cannot rest my wrists. When I do, it starts to use the touchpad and my cursor ends up all over the place and sometimes my page will scroll uop or down. Could that be it?
No to ctrl-R...My finger would have to go out of the ordinary for that.
I am on a laptop, but it's plugged into a docking station & regular keyboard.
I'm at work mostly when on LBT, and I can't really recall if it's happened at home.
At work, though, the screen will also sometimes flash little DOS windows very quickly across my screen, then go back to normal. (This is if I'm doing anything at all, even not online.) I'm not sure if that has something to do with mysterious refreshing or not...

I learned that if I have two windows open online that this happens to me, I do not know why...it just does. When you are on this site, close any other sites you may have open (do not minimze, close them).
