Weird drag and drop issue in XP SP2

Drag & Drop Fix. Win 2000, Win XP Has repaired the very few cases of lost drag-and-drop ability we’ve encountered so far in Windows XP, and has also worked in Windows 2000. Don’t confuse this with the Win9x version — there are small differences in the Registry structures involved.
This saved me today from hours of heart-ache without drag and drop. Another reason why I love my Mac. All of a sudden I couldn’t drag and drop anymore. It’s been going on for a week and now it finally works!
Did you find a fix? I fixed it with a reg patch, but now it is back to the bug. I can not move anything!!!
Whenever the problem happens I just run the fix again and reboot. Do you have any text replacement programs running in the background? That’s what kept doing it for me.
