I find that sometimes if I accidentally nudge the mouse when I'm typing it goes weird. maybe that's your problem? Jim

Not too sure about this.........is it possible you are pressing Ctrl plus another key,.......instead of the shift key? also you appear to have the caps lock button pressed, in your message........... Bob......

Yes, this happens to me also. I thought it was me doing something stupid or had I inadvertantly hit the wrong key. Nice to know I'm not on my own.

Hi Rosemary, I've experienced this too. I found it stopped when I cleared my history, cookies and files (go into Tools, then Internet options) and emptied my Recyle bin. Hope this works for you!
