Hi!

I had this happen to me a while back. I can't remember what I had to do to
fix it, though. This is an operating system setting. Maybe post in a Windows
group. I did a quick search of Windows help and of course it was NO help!

Maybe it was:
windows start button|Control Panel|Accessibility Options|Keyboard tab

Something to do with StickyKeys????

(But I don't know what key blocker is.)

This is what happens to "us" really slow typers! You hold down the shift key
while searching for the letter key!!!!

The only thing I've used on that accessibility options is the Toggle keys (on
the same keyboard tab).

It's one of the first things I fix, er, change when working on other people's
pcs. I hit the caps lock by error enough to really depend on that beep.
