Shift key wont turn off!

[JordieBo]

I dont know how this happened but when I woke up this morning shift would not turn off!
I cant type numbers as they come up as ! and " and so on and i cant do any punctuation like full stops
When I press enter on MSN and stuff it just goes to next line and the last letter i type goes on until i press another key
Example:
My name is freddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

See?
This is very anoying as i cant do anything i want to
Ive checked sticky keys and everything and i turned them all off
i dont know how to fix this and it bugs me
if i restart it goes back to normal for a little bit but then it will come up with a message asking me if i would like to turn something on because i have had shift on held down
Also when i move the wheel on my mouse instead of it going up or down the page it goes back or forward a page
Anyone else have this problem?

I don't know if you solve this issue but you're turned on sticky keys.

You can turn it off in accessibility options in the control panel.

No, nothing is turned on but sometimes my shft key just doesn't turn off.
Anyway it's doing it alot less now, but when it's working there seems to be a kind of key toggle. When i press d for example it stays on.
This is my main priority.
e.g. hello dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddave

Touché.

[JordieBo]

I mostly use it on the go. =/
And besides all my keyboards have a green connection thing.

That would be a ps/2 then?  I assume...

Oh

I reread your post and you specifically mentioned you checked for Sticky Keys.

However the message that shift was repeatedly pressed and the dddddddddddddddddd would be indicative of Windows Accessiblity options.

Have you tried not only turning those options off but disabling them altogether ?

In Vista : Control Panel : Ease of Access Center : Make the keyboard easier to use : set up sticky keys : uncheck "turn on sticky keys when shift is pressed 5 times"

In XP : Its under Accessibility Options in the control panel.  Forgot the specifics but you can disable the shortcut just as in Vista.  I'd turn disable all 3 accessibility options shortcut if I were you.

Yep, I've disabled all of them. I even tried enabling all of them, I also tried a mixture of the two. =/
By the way, my shift key hasn't been stuck for a while now so that's good. But I still have the problem with the keys keeping on going.
