Leon - maybe.  I always avoid the slightly torturous task of
upgrading the BIOS if I can - I always get stuck in a BIOS vs
Embedded Controller thing and get annoyed..!  I'm also afraid it'll
break something.  But maybe I'll try - it's been a while...

The Thunderbird behaviour you're all describing (I don't use it)
sounds an awful lot like Firefox with the All-in-One Gestures
plugin...
