Something truly bizarre is happening. The problem is with Firefox. I'm finding that I can't type normally. The typing is all coming out backwards. For instance, if I want to type "the", I have to type first "e", then "h", then "t". This is only happening with Firefox. IE is functioning just fine. (It's taken me ten minutes to type this far.)

Does anybody know what this might be? It just started happening about 15 minutes ago. (Also, I can't use the mouse to reposition the cursor within the writing space; I have to use the arrow keys.

!!!!PPLLLLLLEEEEEEHHH


ETA: I rebooted the computer and the problem went away. It was REALLY WEIRD, though, and if anyone knows what it could have been, I'd sure love to hear your ideas. *is a little freaked*

How bizarre. I have Firefox and haven't experienced anything quite like this before. Do you have the latest version?

Rebooting is always a smart move when things start to go haywire. I hope that's an end to the weirdness!

Eek! I use Firefox and have never had that happen so will watch out from now onwards. My problem is a keyboard that keeps going dead after being woken up from hibernation. I have to restart the computer and it did it again this morning. It's a real pain. I don't think tower computers are supposed to be put into hibernation and this is why it happens.
