    We occasionally do that! :doh: :sad:

    But you can recover it. :hapydancsmil: (It works for Internet Explorer - don't know about any others.)

    Just press CONTROL+SHIFT+T :dbgrtmb:

      Google Chrome has a recent tabs tool. It opens in a drop box and you just select the one that you want from the list (last ten I think).

        Always doing it with this useless HP Pavilion.

        I emailed the manufacturers saying they must have worked so hard to make a cursor that when you click on it, it jumps randomly to another part of the page and clicks on something else :doh:

            I often open a 'page' from a communication and then when I want to return to that communication the leftward pointing arrow is 'greyed out'. so I have to close down and go through all the palaver of opening up the page again only to find that the communication isn't on the list ! ! ! It is very infuriating, will Control, shift and T sort this out?

            Cheers, Tony.

              @Zigs, there's a set up somewhere in your computer where you can sort out mouse/cursor control, it's such a long time ago now since I used it I can't remember where it is, sorry.
