HI...I have big problem with my keyboard. Sometimes...whenever i tape on it...I activate some kind of shortcuts on my computer. For example when I type "E"..."My computer" opens, when I type somethning else...some other program apper and open.
I don't know is it virus or not...I checked it with AVG and program founds nothing.
I formated partition C and reinstaled whole OS (WIN XP)...and problem didn't disappear.SORRY FOR Y ENGLISH...anD WRITING WITH BIG LETTERS...SOMETIMES THIS IS SO ANNOYING...THAT I HAVE TO PRESS "SHIFT" ALL THE TIME, JUST TO TYPE...CAUZE I NOTICED WHEn...I HOLD SHIFT...I ALLMOST CAN TYPE WITHOUT ACTIVATING OTHER PROGRAMS. IT'S SO ANNOYING...I TYPED THIS 15 MINUTES.

is your keyboard USB or PS2?
Some HELP in posting on Cnet plus free progs and instructions Glad to Help!

I third the keyboard being the problem...
It actually sounds like your windows logo key is stuck down, when you hit the "E" key and the windows logo key at the same time explorer will open. That is assuming you have a windows logo / start key on your keyboard.
Short-cuts with windows key + other.
windows key + "E" key = shortcut to "computer" (explorer window)
windows key + pause / break = system properties window
windows key + "M" key will minimize all windows
windows key + "L" key = change user (vista only?)
windows key + "F" = search window
windows key + "D" key will show desktop
windows key + "R" key will open run box
If these are the kind of behaviours you are experiencing while typing (try typing some of the keys without holding the windows key down) you may have narrowed it down.
