SYMPTOMS
If you select Jump Text in Dangerous Creatures, and then hide the resulting pop-up window using WindowShade, when you select another Jump Text item the screen redraws incorrectly when the new window opens.

For example, parts of the screen seems to be missing.



CAUSE
The problem occurs if you use WindowShade to hide a pop-up window and then open another pop-up window while the first pop-up window is currently hidden.



RESOLUTION
Do not use WindowShade to hide the pop-up window.

To force the screen to redraw properly without quitting Dangerous Creatures, do the following:
 * 1) Click the application menu located in the upper-right corner of the screen. Select Hide Microsoft Dangerous Creatures.
 * 2) Click the application menu again, and select Microsoft Dangerous Creatures.
