Hi everyone!

I am running Winxp and have a slight problem that just started today.

Wheneverp I type certain letters, they appear like this:

The letter 'p' is added whenever I press the space bar.
The number '6' appears when I press thep 'h' key.
And other letters cause problems as well.

Thanks for your help! :tazz:

When you try to type a ''?'' do you get a ''=''? If so, press Shift+Ctrl.

Unfortunately, that did not help. More examples of what occurs:

the buttonp 'k' resizes my Firefox screen to a full screen.
The letter 'h' appears, but always with a '6' in front.

T6hanks for your help!
