That is to say, when I click on the menu button at the bottom left, it pops up just as it should. But after I click on the program icon I want the menu doesn't go away again. Well, it does if I click somewhere outside the menu box. But it's a pain to have to do an extra click every time I want to load a program. Any ideas?

(Solved) Mintmenu will pop up but not go away.

Try this
The post immediately above it offers a different solution
found here.Click on the little box in the upper left corner of the menu -- solved it for me! You only see the little box when you have this problem.

these posts are from June 09The "mintmenu hangs" bug is an old one that can probably never be solved
Open gconf-editor (Alt+F2)
The key /apps/mintMenu has an option pin_menu and I think it has been selected for some strange reason
Deselect and you're ok

Thanks folks. Never noticed that little box before. I knew it had to be something embarrassingly easy!
