Details

- With "focus follows mouse" enabled all just opened (pull down and other) menus
disappear after the mouse enters the menus area.

- For normal pull down menus you can handle this just by not releasing the mouse
button after opening the menu by _LeftMouseButton(down). But since you have to
release the button for the context menus' (right click) showing up, I don't know
any way to reach the shown menu points.

If this description is not enough, don't hesitate to contact me.
With my best regards
Thomas
*** Bug 67146 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I don't know about NT, but in Win9x, you need to get TweakUI or a similar tool,
and turn on the "Activation follows mouse" option.  With this option turned on,
I was able to duplicate the problem in Win98.
Marking NEW as per comments.
