I don't think that's it.  If I hold down Alt deliberately
and press Tab, the silly Alt-Tab popup hangs around.
When Tab was misbehaving, I had no popup.

I think this is just some Windoze stupidity.  Who knows.
I killed an IE process earlier today from the Task Mangler,
maybe that messed something up.  Regardless, I'm
adding the Alt-Tab Banishing Ritual to the Grimoire :-)

your Alt key was likely stuck, or partially so.
pressing (or sometimes smacking) it will generally
clear it up, but you probably want to clean it out
some. keys down in the corners of keyboards stick
easier than others.
