A work around that is working for me to to make the Track box visible and leave it on screen.

It's my impression that these bugs and the one in Timo's feedback http://fold.it/portal/node/996153 started right after the 'remember boxes' feature was added. It seemed to be remembering positions just fine, but not remembering if boxes were closed, or not re-opening boxes that were closed implicitly by track/puzzle/UI mode changes.
I'm pretty sure I don't see any of these bugs in Original UI. I remember having an invisible box, maybe a cookbook, once, but I was probably ducking into selection mode for a quick test of something.

Yeah - I can make out the subtle dark grey on black now, and it sometimes appears when changing from normal interface to selection interface.

The ghost window problem seems to occur when something messes up the "h" (height) keyword for a particular dialog in options.txt. For example, "behavior_options/h" : "88" causes the behavior options dialog to be folded over itself.
I've made this happen for behavior and view options on a fresh install.
A workaround is to close the client, update the "h" keyword with healthy values, and restart the client.
