Hi Memnok, make sure you have object snap enabled in the bottom toolbar and snap the first point for the window onto your area of interest:



Are you maybe working at a particularly small or large scale? When you zoom if you approach the target point close enough it will start to push it forward instead of just approaching it. You might try setting the view to a parallel projection in Options > View > "3D view projection" - a perspective view has to zoom by moving the eye point forward or back while a parallel view zooms by setting a scale factor and so doesn't have that kind of problem.

No - if it did that you would not be able to pan left/right/up/down.
