, After entering text into the second textbox, upon holding down the left arrow
key the caret scrolls to the beginning of the text and upon reaching it moves
back to the end of the text line and again starts to scroll to the beginning again.

This also happens in Win XP and Win ME. Seems like a dupe bug but I couldn't
find anything on it.
