What I have noticed on this lately is that Outlook is the program that sometimes has the wrong keyboard settings. Access and Word are unaffected. Version 2003.

You could check in you control panel Country settings>languages if you have multiple keyboard layouts installed. Remove those you not need, keep only the one you need so when hitting accidently the hotkey can not swap to another layout because there is only one. But I find your changes pretty bizar at my knowledge not corresponding with specific country keyboard layouts (at least those I know). I seem to remember there is a spyware/trojan/virus/keylogger having this effect, I believe a searchbar addin for IE. So if I where you I would download the MS antispyware beta (or any other but the MS one is the best I ever seen) en scan your computer for these. Greetings. Erwin
