    Hi Angie,

    Thanks for the feedback. This is exactly the kind of information
    I was looking for.

    I was unable to reproduce your problem so I contacted the company
    and was informed that this was a problem that was addressed in
    one of the newer versions. Can you verify this. I am using
    a dual-monitor setup and the problem does not occur. How exactly
    are you set up?

    Cathy
