Hello Paul,

Thank you for your response. It seems like a solution.
I can disable most of the widgets. I use many of them but only a few are 
really necessary for me.
I don’t run those that you name but it’s pretty probable that some of 
the widgets I use are just buggy.
The only widget I wish to keep is Dr. Launch. We shall see if it isn’t 
the buggy one ;-)
So for the start, I’ll experiment and remove the widgets one by one. 
Maybe I shall report my results for the benefit of everybody on this 
mailing list.
