Menu bar items lighting up on their own without my hovering over them
A few minutes ago all of the menu bar items were lighting up in succession over and over - File, Edit, View, History, etc. would light up and the dropdowns would show as if I had moved the cursor over them. But I hadn't. My hand was not even on the mouse and the cursor arrow was way off to the lower right desktop. It was not moving. Then it seemed to randomize, different menu items lighting up and then it actually went to the Bookmarks dropdown and went down and selected a page and Firefox moved to that page. My hands were at my sides the whole time. But the cycling through the Menu items didn't stop and I didn't want it to keep going to pages I hadn't chosen so I did CTRL-ALT-DEL and closed Firefox. I've reopened it and it seems to be fine, but can anyone tell me what was going on?

thanks mha007
Thank you! I'll try your suggestions in the morning and will post back if solved.
I already ran a ghost diagnostic. Just kidding, though I hate to admit "a ghost!" did flash through my mind for a second. But then I thought the ghost should be able to move the cursor and it was stationary while the menus were lighting up ;-)
