Hi Dana,

My last reboot was 24 hours ago. Usually it takes 3-5 days for the
problem to manifest but this time it took maybe 16 hours. I don't know
exactly when it starts to manifest because I don't click outside
windows that often. Also I should mention that I never switch off the
computer, what I do is put it to sleep (suspend), and I do it quite
often.

Anyway, I did what you suggested and got the output below when
right-clicking outside all windows (no Openbox menu appeared). Any
ideas?

$ xwininfo

xwininfo: Please select the window about which you
          would like information by clicking the
          mouse in that window.
