My computer would boot fine, (Dell Inspirion w/ XP) and
at very random times it would do this: It acts like im
holding down the Windows button when I am typing. Ex.
I'll be chating on AIM, and all of a sudden ill press 'm'
and the window will minimize, if i press 'r' it opens the
Run prompt, if i press 'e' Exlporer opens....do i need to
go on? The only way to fix it is to restart, and that is
really annoying. Can someone help me?

Roman,

Sounds like something like StickyKeys. Check Control Panel -
Accessibility Options - Keyboard tab - StickyKeys.

Cheers,
Chuck
