Hi, It sounds as if you have in unintentionally turned on "Sticky Keys".
If you absent mindedly hold down the Shift key for more than 5 seconds,
while thinking what you want to say, you have turned on "Sticky keys.
Sorry, at the moment, I can't find how to turn it off in the Jaws help. May
be someone else will be able to answer that part.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] WORD 2007 PROBLEM
All JAWS users,
Can you pleasse help with a problem I am having frequently within word
2007. When I go to type if I hit certain keys it acts as if I have hit a
combination of keys. Some of the problems I am experiencing are as follows
it opens up a new document, erases some of if not all the paper I am
working on I then have to go and hit control and the letter z for undo
until I get my paper back starting all over with the line or sentences i
have already typed by the time I notice it. I also have noticed when I hit
the letter F by itself a lot of times it will go to the find page when I
do the JAWS key and the letter F on the highlited items it may even say
that I am in hanging indent when i have never put this paper in hanging
indent. I also noticed that it often times feels that certain things
should be italicised or bolded and underlined for that matter. When these
problems have occurred the fixes I have tried that sometimes works is
hitting JAWS key plus the space bar to turn on home row then hitting it
again to turn off home row. I am wanting to know is there a permanent fix
for these problems if so any help would be greatly appreciated thanks in
advance. I apologize for such a long message. I am using JAWS 10 on a Dell
Inspiron 1545 my operrating system (OS) is windows XP
