A lot of the screen is selected then I get frustrated.

Windows XP, working with Office 2003, Outlook, Excel and Word. I'm working
in Word, suddently when I click to edit, everything from the top of the file
is selected.

When I try to open a file, everything in the directory is selected and the
double click seems to tell Windows XP to open all the files above the place
where I click.

Although sometimes I lean too long on my shift key, which causes, I think,
"sticky keys" to be turned on, I try to cancel it when the question "do you
want sticky keys" pops up.

Then, when I go back to window, even after a reboot, the "Select all" mode
occurs on the windows desktop too.

Accessibility is back to "default"
No checks on Keyboard tab.
No checks on Sound tab
No checks on Display tab
No checks on Mouse tab
General tab - Only the two "Notification checks are checked.

Help! You can't (but maybe you can) imagine how frustrating this is.

When that happens to me, and yes it happens to all of us, I go through and
tap each CTRL, SHIFT, and ALT key a couple times, and then it goes away.

Hope that helps.
