My laptop recently started invoking refresh (F5) on its own. Works OK from start-up/reboot but then for no apparent reason will start refreshing

Initially thought it was a web page scripting issue, as I noticed it while browsing. But then found it occurs with the browser closed.

Not sure if this could be a hardware issue, or some silly virus, or just a bug?

Would like a utility that could tell me what device/program is invoking the refresh.

Any ideas?

thanks

Have you tried using a live-CD to check to see if it's a hardware problem?

No, but that is a good idea. Thanks – Chris Hulan Mar 29 '10 at 16:40
