Hi,

I am having a problem on multiple computers, where my curson in IE will
jump to the beginning of the line, leaving me with address that look
like:

ogle.comwww.go

This seems to only happen when a page is loading. Is there any way for
my address bar to keep focus the whole time? It drives me crazy!


Thanks

chris
 
Hi Chris,

Since this is happening on multiple computers (networked?) suggests that
they are infected with Malware.

So in the first instance you should scan, detect and remove any malware that
has been placed on your machines.

Another reason could be a misbehaving Add-in (toolbar). To test this Open
the Internet Settings and uncheck the 'Enable third-party Browser
Extensions' option on the Advanced tab. Save the change and restart IE to
see if the behavior persists.

To answer your question 'Is there some way for my address bar to keep
focus' - No, the web page gets focus. (The shortcut to give the Address Bar
focus is ALT+D)

I trust I have been of assistance.
