Another symptom is not being able to select from a form drop down menu. It's like a constant mini freeze.

Any suggestions?
Sounds like it's time to check for malware.
Run Mallwarebytes and then SuperAntiSpyware to see if they pick up anything.

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com
SuperAntiSpyware Free Edition - Free software downloads and software reviews - CNET Download.com

and update to the latest data definitions after installing.
