I am used to taking advantage of auto complete while jotting down notes on
my iPAQ. I write a few letters, the word I want pops up, and I tap on it.
However, with my new HP4150, if I have WMP loaded in the background when I
do it, instead of selecting the word, media player starts playing music!

Has anyone heard of this, and is there a fix?

TIA
Joel

Yes, and no. I've seen it happen in WM2003 as well with WMP loaded,
but not on, and using IM.
