Yes, I'm sure it isn't a stuck key. I have also gone into Safe Mode
with Networking and it still does it. I've also tried using osk.exe
and it does it there also. One site:
http://www.imdb.com/ constantly
does this. Say I type in Star Wars for the the movie. then without
even selecting which Star Wars Episode when I try and back space by
either using the backspace key or backspace button or by clicking the
backspace arrow nothing happens. I have to do it 3 times before it
backspaces. Yet on most other programs if functions normally. The
thing is that I didn't have this problem until recently and the only
new program I've added was System Mechanics which shouldn't interfere
with this. If so, I would think it would do it everywhere and not just
a few selected sites.
