Good suggestion though.  I have two MS ones that are close together and
can't work out how to stop the bloody things interfering with each
other.  Anybody?  Of course completely of topic really...

        Probably a *really* silly question, but do they have a wireless
keyboard and/or mouse? And if so, does anyone else near them?

                Almost sounds like a Macro virus, i.e. a worm that is
running which is opening and typing things, can you see any unusual
process names? If you disable Macros does it stop??

                This is an odd one. 

                Have a few users saying that very strange things
happening. 

                For example they open an new email and the signature
block starts getting deleted (she says she never had overtype on) 
                Also getting word opening and closing and all kinds of
bizare things as if someone else is typing. 

                We have W2k3, Office 2003, CMFPSv3. 

                I checked a session and could not see any odd processes
running.  I have not identified anything with the virus scan. 

                Got no clue. 

                Any ideas? 

                        Thanks once more.
