Automatic back page on web browser with FE21M

This is a strange one... I have a FE21M and every now and then the browser will automatically go back to the previous page.

I can't recreate it consistently - when I have it seems to be to do with a way I catch the mouse pad. Either way I have never had this probelm with any other laptop and it is very frustrating especially when completing forms and finding everything has been lost!

Does anyone have a similar experience or ideas - any thoughts welcomed.

Many thanks,
Matt

You're right, it's the touchpad.

To stop this behaviour:

right click the touchpad icon in the systray.
click the function tab.
disable the web assistant then click apply.

Hi Rob - what can I say?! Think you must have replied in under two minutes!

A big thanks from me and a bigger thanks from my wife who was about to throw the laptop out the window the next time it messed up her photo upload!

Thanks again really appreciate it.

Cheers,
Matt
