It's a hard problem to describe in the title, but basically when I want to click to open or select something, The mouse cursor goes to the grabbing hand, and..well...grabs things. This goes for text-boxes, web links, folders, etc...

I am able to open applications, and to navigate in someways around, using the keyboard, but it is impossible to complete some tasks, and if not impossible...very annoying.

I assume that if needed I can open a terminal and mess around a bit, if there is any simple solution that would be great, because I'm going to have to switch back between Vista(yuck!), and Ubuntu.

Any help/concern/sympathy will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot Ubuntu community, you guys/gals make my virtual world go 'round.
