Might actually have been a virus...I remember an old IRL ex-friend of mine got something around the lines of a keyboard panic virus that would cause his keyboard to write nothing but 'I AM FUCKING GAY' on loadup. The method around that was a text file that had links to virus protection sites on it. CTRL+C, CTRL+V.

Press M. If all the windows minimize, it's because your Windoze key is stuck.

But it is the Windows key related, that's for sure. Holding in the Windows key while pressing a button usually does stuff.



...I love you. =)

I was thinking it might have been caused by the recent spyware problem, but apparently not.

Stupid question but... Have you by any chanche restarted the computer? Shut it off and on? Any Keyboard errors when you turn on the computer?

There, I fixed your post.

Doesn't sound like a virus to me, sounds like your keyboard is fucked up. Is it wireless?
Do you have a bunch of crud stuck between the keys?

Something's wrong, you see, certain keypresses make the active window minimize, or bring up the search or Run Dialogs, so i have to hold shift to type stuff. Does anyone know what the problem might be?
