I've just noticed a problem with my computer when I was trying to type up a paper... whenever I hit the backspace key in Word 2000, it opens the "Find Text" dialog. When I presse backspace in Notepad, it inserts the date and time... this is veeeery strange. If anyone has heard of this kind of thing, or has any ideas, let me know. Thanks.

viruses ?

you don't have your keyboard or region set to something strange like japanese or something??
