    and remember to make sure you completely unplug your PC to "re-seat the power source"

    What spec is your PC/LT?
    What size RAM?
    What OS and patch level?
    How long do you leave the PC on before it happens?
    Do you get the same problem when NOT connected to the network/Internet?

    If I hit the CTRL key I can locate it and I can "move" it but I cant see it. At present I have to reboot to make it visible again.

    Any ideas how I can resolve it?
