I'm just guessing here, but if you open the menu where the cursor is
forced not to be in the top left of the menu titlebar, ie the bottom of
the screen and release it it will open/execute whatever command the
cursor happens to be next to, perchance this could be "exit", apparently
this is a known bug 'twixt xor and woodblock.
My menu is about the same size as yours and i can't reproduce the mouse
wheel thing, or have really any trouble with it, other than the afore
mentioned, and i use menus for everything; also i am using cvs so maybe
it is fixed?
