Is this virus behaviour???
Once agian thanks for your time.........

Is this problem STILL happening?  Have you tried a different keyboard?
This sort of thing can be caused by a virus, but it can be caused by a lot of other things as well.  It could also be no more than a fluke.
You should try another keyboard; if the problem persists, then we'll brainstorm and come up with other possible solutions.Hi,CBMatt. i have just tried another keyboard
 off mums gateway pc and it was still happening
 dell help site had me checking that, regions was in
 english usa, and it was, other keys affected are the

 might of been bad but im just glad its working agian
 Once again thank for your time fella..
 cheers..P...It's hard to say what the cause might've been, but it's entirely possible that a hotfix was causing problems.  I would more prone to suspect some third-party program, but System Restore would've uninstalled whatever it was.  In any case, I'm glad your issue is resolved, and I hope it stays that way.Thanks so do i..As this issue appears to be resolved, I am closing this topic.  If you are the original poster and you would like this topic to be re-opened for any reason, PM me or another moderator and it can be arranged.
