Desktop Oddity

An odd thing occurred on my desktop and was wondering if
anyone else has experienced it.
While I was in Windows Mail I double clicked a message in a
news group and nothing happened. The mouse pointer was
sluggish but I managed to get to the close button and closed it.
Then on my desktop appeared 2 windows without borders. One had
my desktop wallpaper and the other was a blank blue background
with the name a program I had open but minimized to the task bar. Weird.
I went to right click the taskbar and click Task Manager but when I right
clicked the windows vanished.
I can remember a while back when all of a sudden my desktop was filled
with several windows one behind the other.
My scans for Viruses came up negative and my system seems to be running
very well.

Any ideas?
James

Look for an icon in the task bar called 'Switch Between Windows" and click
on it. Is that what you are seeing?
