Are you using Frame Maker, version 1.3 or earlier?  Frame had the annoying
problem of modifying the mouse event rate for all windows, causing the
exact behavior you describe.  If so, you need to get version 1.3b, which
fixes the problem.

You may have other applications which have modified the tracking rate.
Incidentally, the code you describe is the "right" way to solve the
problem.
