I'm using Mozilla 1.6 on Windows 98SE.

I view news groups using Google Groups. Occasionally, when viewing a
thread the page up, page down, home, and end keys do not work. The
scroll button does work but not the others. If I highlight some words
and do select Edit, the Copy feature is not selectable. Right now,
the arrow keys do not work in this message box.

If I close Mozilla and reopen it, the above mentioned keys will
function, at least for a short while.

No changes in software on my machine lately,

Any ideas what might be causing these problems and how to fix them
without having to close Mozilla?

Thanks for any help.

Exactly what do you mean by 'using Google Groups'?

First, left-click once in the right-most pane to give it the focus and
then the page up, page down, home and end keys should work as expected.

Um, why not subscribe to the newsgroups directly and avoid the added interface of Google?

Thanks, but that doesn't solve the problem.
