Mouse jumps after resizing window

Yesterday I read some Microsoft tips and one which I did I'd like to reverse.
It said you could hold Ctrl key down and double click the toolbar and your
window would become full size of your screen(toolbar would disappear), to get
it back you just raise your mouse up to it and all would come back for a
short time. Since doing this my mouse has started to jump around and become
sluggish(for a short time when going to the toolbar), How can I reverse this
action? I could not find anything about it, I don't believe its spyware doing
this, I just got pc back from pc tech's which cleaned all up plus I have run
Adware and Spybot.
 
Tim,

Can you provide the URL where you read that tip?

Hi Ron, figured it out myself.
Downsized the window and it reverted back to the way it always worked, don't
know why it should have (mouse jumping after going to full size window)
happened though. I found it on MSN under exploring windows I believe,
Microsoft 5 neat tips. Thanks for taking the time to look at my post and
offering what you did!

Click the Restore icon in the toolbar OR press F11 key.


Good Luck, Ayush.

Just double-click the Title-bar of the window in question.
