"Find People" page appears whilst creating e-mails

[Laura]

The "Find People" panel normally opens after pressing Ctrl + e.
Recently I have noticed when typing a message in the e-mail message page,
the "Find People" panel frequently opens when the letter e is pressed as
part of a word.
This recent phenomenon is annoying to say the least. Can anyone please
explain why this is happening and a possible solution (happened twice during
the preparation of this post)?

The control key was identified as pressed - either the keyboard is bad, or
you have sticky keys or something similar enabled to make using ctrl easier.

Hi Diane,
I have searched the 'Help' menu without success for information on removing
the Ctrl + e from the shortcut list.
Can I cancel the shortcut key Ctrl + e, if so how?

AFAIK, you can't remap it. Are you using Ctrl+E for some other shortcut?

Diane, I don't think Ctrl + e is used for other functions within Outlook
Express or any other programme in my computer.
