Typing

This Trouble i'm having is typing, in Yahoo mail, or even "this message bored" I haven't noticed it in any other place. I have a  windows ME, dell 4100 internet explorer 6

when I type all sorts of strange things happens, the Edit file from my browser pops down on me, the Favorites file pops down, the Tools File pops down, even the Internet options will pop out in front of me, The Curser is always  disappearing on me so I have to use my mouse to get it back, try typing and have all those files pop out in front of you, I'm tired of it, please help.

    If sounds like you have a bad keyboard.  Thee is nothing on this forum (or any forum or e-mail program or wordprocessor) that would make it behave like that.  Do you have some sort of "voice typing" activated on your PC?  That would cause it to do wierd things.

    Borrow a keyboard from a friend and try it on your PC to see if works OK.  (Power off the PC BEFORE switching keyboards - do not unplug or plug in a keyboard with power on or it can cause damage to logic on the motherboard and even cause the problems you are having).
