   Hey, that's exactly what's happening with me!  I have NEVER had to use   
   control-alt-delete so often!  Interrupting whatever I'm doing.   
      
   Unlike Ron, however, I've BEEN using 8.1.2 ever since it came out.   
   Bad move?  I get so ticked, I revert to steady old 7.1.   
      
   I don't have quite the juice as Ron, but I have plenty to keep things   
   running.   
      
   8.1.2 is doing other weird things; however, I'll wait and see what   
   advice the gurus give on this problem.
