Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Filter keys If you hold down the right shift key for eight seconds
you go into Filter Keys mode. When I did that by mistake
my keyboard got messed up. Caps became lower case and
vice-versa and letters became symbols. I couldn't figure
out how to get out of this for a while but found that by
holding down the right shift key for eight seconds a
second time, everything returned to normal again.

Since then the Filter Keys mode comes up all by itself
every so often without my doing anything. But those times
the result is that the cursor stays in one place and I am
unable to type. Pressing right shift for eight seconds
gets me back to normal. How do I stop this mode from
coming on by itself?
