Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I can’t type anything without it coming out backwards . Anybody else ever had this? I can type on Word (I’ve cut and pasted this). What’s going on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Are the letters coming out backwards? Post it so we can see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I had that happen to me a few weeks ago. I got an email which I wasn't 100% about but I still opened it, then as it was opening I thought it might be a mistake, so I shut it down immediately. Then whatever site I went to and tried typing on, it all came out backwards. After the panic subsided, I ran my usual ccleaner then dia a full anti virus check and finally rebooted. It was fine after that and I have no idea what on earth it was but it was pretty spooky!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 most likely a virus, disconnect from the internet and run a full system scan using what ever antivirus software you use, then see if problem still happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Fred's right, a full system scan is in order... we had that at work recently on one machine after someone opened a dodgy email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Hope you have it sorted. Earlier this year my colleague came back to work, I had really missed her so to welcome her back I changed the settings on her computer so the screen was upside down. Kept her amused for a while trying to work it out. Wicked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
