...but I am suddenly much closer to the problem...
More careful research threw up a long convoluted problems where the "experts" ( - there are so many of them out there) spent ages having a guy run all kinds of spyware logs, tweak this, run it again...what do these guys get from being like this?
Anyway, the OP eventually tracked the problem down to some USB device. So I unplugged all of my USB devices and alt tab and volume problems immediately disappeared. Now I've pluigged them all back in and the problem is still absent. So at least when it re-occurs I can be a bit scientific about unplugging stuff one by one to see what the cause is.
Thanks all for advice and for listening, this helped as it made me concentrate on what my problems were, which collectively seems to have helped with the cure.
