I'm not sure if this is a Litestep issue, or an XP issue that I just haven't come across before, or what, but I'm checking here first. Now, what's happening is I'm occasionally getting visual artifacts on my screen. The strange thing is, sometimes they only show on one VWM, sometimes (maybe only once so far) on all. Now, it basically looks like the bottom and right-hand sides of a small window (maybe like 7cmx1cm, bottom and right respectively), with a shadow beneath it. Refreshing LS doesn't help. Has anyone seen anything like this before? It's starting to slowly drive me crazy! Also, it normally appears to be in roughly the same position. I haven't yet been able to see any pattern in the occurences.

Do you only see a shadow? As in, there is no graphic casting the shadow? Yes I get that. Very rarely though.

Unfortunately I can't offer any information about it. I don't know what makes it appear. I know logging out will make it vanish whilst recycling does nothing. I don't remember seeing this shadow before so I suspect it caused by a LS module.

Actually I haven't see it since I upgraded to jAmptoo 1.4. Version 1.4 fixes a bug where jAmptoo appeared in the task manager. Maybe it was also casting the shadow?

well, it happened with jamptoo in Glaze, as well as Visual-17, which used dynamp. good thought though. ;) also, there is a tiny graphics causing the shadow. it seems to be JUST an outline of an actual window, maybe 1-2 pixels wide, and then below that is the shadow..

If I understand what you're describing, deuce, I think it's a WinXP problem. I haven't been using LS long enough to know if it's an exporer problem, but in explorer I'd occasionally get those darn pop-up "help" windows stuck on my screen, long after the program was closed. I never found a good way to get rid of them, short of rebooting.
