Garbage characters in FM9

Hello All

FM9.0 p250 (structured), Windows XP SP3, Pentium dual 2.00GHz, 1 GHz of RAM (I know...)

I'm finding that sometimes FM inserts garbage characters when inserting text. For example, adding text in a Body para that uses Adobe Minion Pro, I type o and get op; I type s and get so. The Backspace key deletes the following character instead of the previous one, and the left-arrow key moves right.

No doubt a memory problem, but has anyone else noticed similar shenanigans? I do get the impression, on this borderline hardware, that FM eats up memory over the course of the day...
