now seems to be affecting the spacebar too

illustrator CS2 has been the biggest POS ever...

Happened to me once before. Had to throw out a few prefs and cache files and all back to normal. Search Adobe's discussion forums for more info...

Funny, I'm having an obscure conflict between Safari 2.0.4 and Adobe CS2's
Bridge 1.0.4 (this is on a Mac running all the latest Tiger upgrades). If I have
them running at the same time and I quit Bridge, sometimes Bridge doesn't
actually quit, but lingers on and displays Safari's menu as its own if I switch
apps back to Bridge to investigate. Even if I then quit out of Safari, Bridge
continues to display Safari's menus, even though Safari is no longer listed
as a running app when I go to force-quit out of Bridge. One person Adobe's
forums recommended that I switch back to Adobe Camera Raw 3.4, not the
current version (3.6), and it reoccurs eventually even if I reset Bridge's prefs.
I'm not using Entourage.

johnc is a man of few words, but he makes everyone count.
