Periodically my character locks up when I go to hand over an item and instead of clicking on the item in my inventory, I click on the icon which you are supposed to click on AFTER you remove the item from your inventory.

My character completely locks up. I am unable to move, teleport, or do anything.

I do a ctl-alt-del to get out of the situation.

Is there another solution to this problem?

Thank you for your help!
