This happens to me with the windows key and the alt key and the control key and the shift key on, ahem, that other screen reader. What I found solves it for me is to press both shift keys, both control keys, both alt keys, and both windows keys at the same time for a second or so. That always releases any stuck keys. It may be related to keyboard intercepting, though probably not the fault of the screen reader or Windows or any single entity.

What happens if you smack your windows key?  Sometimes the computer thinks the 
keys are down but they are not.

Subject: window eyes evaluation locks the windows key

Hi,
i just downloaded the window eyes demo and thought want to play with the 
vocalizer voices. but, when i launch window eyes, the windows key is locked, 
sticking, so whenever i press any keys, windwos+that key is executed. so, 
cannot use the machine at all! cannot alt tab, cannot alt
f4 and so on, if i reinstall it, the demo will expired! i don't want to loose 
my 60 day evaluation! previously i've installed we for office and it works 
find, but the evaluation isn't. if i use another screen reader, the windows key 
is find. so it's not the fault my keyboard. any help?
thanks
