Heinz,
On your Internet Explorer window, at the top of the page there is the button "Tools". Click on that button and then select "Internet Options". Under the "General" tab there is a section for "History". Set the time to keep pages in history to one day.
The problem that you have is an "ActiveX" problem reeking havoc with your mouse and cursor (aggravated by the graemlins on this site), caused by various Java programs that you have viewed at other sites. If you have Norton System Works, this software can eliminate the pesky bits of code.
