Sometimes while I have several windows opened at the same time, I will try to
move one of them out of the way, but when I do it, it leaves a "trail" across
the screen that blocks the other windows, and if I drag it, I can "smear" it
over the ENTIRE screen!! What can cause this?? I use WinXP home with 1GB of
Ram and an Intel P4 Processor.

That would be generated by your video card/video driver. Go to the
video card manufactuer's web site and download the latest driver
updates for your exact card model and install these.

If your computer has the video integrated into the motherboard rather
than on a separate video card then you need to get the drivers from
the motherboard manufacturer's web site.

Good luck
