I'm having problems with my laptop. It seems as if any time I try to type
anything, there is a period between every letter. I keep having to use the
backspace key to delete it. It's very annoying. I can't search online because
even if I don't touch the period key, it seems to just get stuck and the
periods go on forever. Restarting the computer doesn't work.

Help!

What happens when you try a different keyboard?

I'd have to ask, "Why?" Granted, one should always have cuurent virus
definition files and perform period scans, but I've seen no reports of a
new "Period" virus. So why attribute what is almost certainly a simple
hardware (and/or associated device driver) issue to a virus?
