AI CS6 locks up when using scale or rotate tool

Hi, for some reason when I try using (double click) the scale or rotate tool in the toolbar the program freezes up and just makes a clicking sound when I try clicking onto something. I have to force-quit and restart the program, only to have it happen again.

All the other functions seem to work. I restarted the machine, closed all applications, etc. This just started today for some reason.

Does anyone know what the heck this is? I hope someone can help, I have some jobs due...

    Which system exactly?

    WHich hardware exactly?

    This actually sounds like the dialog box has opened and is hidden somewhere (on a monitor that no longer exists or whatever).

    When your system does this, does it help when you just click Esc? Because then the dialog box issue would be likely

    I uninstalled and then reinstalled successfully - but it is still doing it - locking up when I use the rotate, scale or shear tool. Any other ideas please?
