I see it when I am in "start" programs... it happens in my application

recent change I made to my system was to install explorer 8, but this
started happening before then. I also installed quickbooks pro 2009, but
again, don't see that as the issue.
Weird one, huh?

In which application/window do you see this behavior (e.g., Windows
Explorer; Internet Explorer; NameOfApplication)?

What changes did you make to your system "about a month ago"?

Thanks for the answer, but this is more of an issue than that. I can be
directly on the dropdown and it will disappear. I am a graphic designer,
and
very familiar with the computer. It also seems this problem only started
happening about a month ago, not sure if that helps, but maybe it will

Don't move your cursor away from the dropdown menu.

look for a moment to find what I need, and it seems that after only a

seconds they close by themselves. Is there a setting I can change so
they
stay there longer? It is sooo frustrating.
thanx
