While typing characters disappear

While typing an email or entering search text in Safari after about 3-4 letters are type they start disappearing or the word totally disappears.

This is sporadic, and can not make it happen.

Restarting does not seem to fix the problem.


What do I look for ?


MacBook Core 2 2Ghz 10.6

Since the last Safari update I have run into the same issue a few times on my iMac. Never had the issue prior to this update. I just quit Safari and relaunch it and it works properly, at least for a while. As for th eissue happening while using mail, are you making sure you are not touching the track pad while typing. I have seen a lot of people do that by accident.
