Tabbing bug?

On the off chance that someone knows, I've been getting this weird bug on Windows.

It's hard to explain: what happens is that I'll be doing something in some program, and every couple of minutes it acts like I clicked on the desktop (open windows stay where they are but fullscreen things minimize). So whatever I was doing stops, and whatever I continue to press doesn't do anything. This makes it annoying to browse/type, and impossible to play games.

No idea what's causing it, but I'd like to continue without reverting. If it helps, I've been having a few problems in the past couple days:
- Shortly after logging on from booting, Windows would crash, give me some message about DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL, then restart. Only seems to happen once or twice before I can boot without incident.
- McAfee won't let me uninstall it: using Programs and Features, it brings me a white window that doesn't do anything
- Recently installed VirtualBox, System Shock 2; recently uninstalled Ubuntu

Stress test your computer with Prime95 overnight and see if you don't blue screen again.
