in safari; i am suddenly and pretty consistently getting a small flashing rectangle in safari, no matter the site i am at.
a small box in the upper-mid right side, just...flashes.
10.3.1 on a powerbook G3 (pismo)


any ideas what this is? (& what to do about it...)


thanx!

i've been getting some random flashes on my second monitor [also with a pismo]. usually when the system's starting up. i'll get what looks like a long narrow white box with a line of text in it appearing briefly in the bottom corner of the second monitor. it's too flickery and fast for me to be sure that's what it really is, but that's the impression i get.
