Im using microsft office and things just pop up like I asked for them and
didnt. Also it tries and does auto delete at time. also front page stops
and auto restarts at the top of a page ready to continue tying from there.
You see i'm typing along and all of a suden something drops down. I did not
ask for it to ok. A microsoft guy said to change keyboards and I did. It
helped for one week two years ago. I checked in options for help but not
help. I have run several antivirus, antispyware programs just in case.
nothing seems to help. I'm sure i'm not the only person that has had this
problem. Please help me or direct me to a place that can help or a website
that might help. Thankyou for are people who respond. Vance

You might want to consider removing the Alt key from your keyboard. Sounds
to me like you keep hitting it.
Hitting the Alt key accesses the menu at the top of the screen. So, in
FrontPage for instance, hitting Alt+O will bring up the format menu. Anyway,
I've heard of people removing the key so they learn not to hit it
accidentally because it feels different now.

Hope it helps!

Many moons ago when the Apple II's were new, many folks removed the reset button
because it would be hit accidentally too often.

In addition to the other suggestions, try turning off the microphone on your
system. Speech recognition can cause some strange things to happen.
