Solve : Typing Problems?

Answer»

When i am typing sometimes the spacebar wont work. As well as this problem sometimes the flashing line where it shows where your typing will move back as if i hit the LEFT arrow key. This happens frequently and is very annoying when typing.When you SAY the spacebar doesn't work, do you mean it does nothing? Or does it overwrite the text you have? If it's the latter, hit Insert and try again. Also, what do you do right before the cursor goes back? Is the Home key near the letter keys?I mean the space bar does nothing. Im also on a laptop so i dont know if that affects anything. When the flashing cursor goes back i am just typing regularly. Ive tested this out by typing really slow to make sure im not accidently clicking anything. This problem is very odd though because some programs won't be affected. Such as these forums or msn. My home button is almost directly beside the backspace button.OK, two questions:

1. Has this always happened?
2. If not, have you made any CHANGES recently to your computer's configuration? (I have no idea what setting would cause this, but it's worth looking into.
3. Have you spilled any liquids on your keyboard? (Gotta clear the obvious first)

OK, that's three. I lied. This has only been happening the last 2 weeks and there is nothing i could have done to casue this. No spills have made around the keyboard.Hmm... what antivirus software do you have installed?I believe this problem is only occuring in firefox. So ill just use internet explorer.OK. Let us know if that FIXES the problem. If not, we'll keep trying. If it doesn't do this in IE, then if you're willing we can look at FireFox and see what causes it to do that. After all, FireFox is superior to IE in too many ways to list; security is a big issue. Using IE truly can be hazardous to your health. Go AHEAD and test on IE, but after a while let us know how it goes. We'll be happy to help. It happens all too often unfortunately. Luckily the most we were getting to was virus scanning. That never hurt anybody.
