I know I've been bitten by this in the past. In particular, once I select ++ the focus can remain in that section of the form so that interactions with arrow keys, pgup/pgdn, etc, will actually switch the radio selection to a downvote (--) rather than DWIM. To avoid it I always click on the page background to ensure the focus is no longer on the radio buttons.
I should add that other interfaces, such as mouse wheels, do not seem to present this problem. But when you have little control over the computer layout (travelling) then you are at the mercy of whatever interface is available.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
