The left click on the mouse/touchpad is usually programmed to open/close documents. When i click to open a document on the bottom panel (when the doc/page is minimized), instead of teh document opening, it actually disappears. I dont have this problem when I switch to Windows XP. I dont know if I have changed any settings, but the mouse settings seeem to be fine. Its frustrating everytime to right click on the mouse and maximze the document. I hope I make sense.
