Every once in a while when I log in every menu gets locked in place unless I move the mouse a little. For example, I open the menu and it starts up at Status, it's stuck there. The only way I can move it is to move the mouse. Then I go down to Equipment and pick it. In the equipment screen the selection is stuck on wherever it starts and I can't pick a piece unless I hit the mouse, then I gotta hit the mouse again to go up and down in the menu to pick the piece I want to equip. It goes on with basically everything, AH menus, going left and right on macros if I'm using a controller. This happen to anyone else? Anyone know a way to stop that without having to /shutdown and log back in? I tried removing the mouse but it doesn't work, it still gets stuck even if the mouse isn't plugged in.

I've had that before, usually when I dualbox though I think. Usually I just tab over to something else I have open, move the mouse on there then tab back and its fine

Or I just hold down one of the arrow keys til it unsticks itself

I've had it once or twice, usually just go spazz on the mouse, moving it around and clicking both buttons and it comes good.

I don't use windower, but from time to time my interface will freeze up and my character will just start running in one direction. He keeps doing even after I kneel to rest. It has happened with 2 different computers and keyboards. I have no idea what it could be. I usually have to just button mash the keyboard until it stops. Oh it always happens at the most inopportune times..

i had the problem too. ur mouse cursor is set to be used as 'enter' key then. just move ur mouse away from what is stuck , then keep pressing ESC or w/e ur console is untill ur mouse cursor complete disappears from ur FF screen. then when u go do ur thing again, it wont get stuck on a curtain piece/menu of ur screen =)
