    I own an Asus F8Sn and whenever I play a game (particularly Counter-Strike 1.6) it will randomly pop up this weird toolbar that seems to change the characters I type into chinese and pops up a "Finalize Script option". Below are pictures of the alleged toolbar. Anyone have any ideas on what this is and how I fix it? It makes it so I can't type in the game though I can still move around and such. It also kills my FPS.

    Here is the image

    Some kind of language bar. I think other people have said it is brought up by pressing CTRL+Space, but I don't remember exactly. Can't you remove it (or at least disable the key combination) from the language settings in the control panel?

    I had it open on me while playing Bioshock. When the program is open in the settings somewher you can turn off the two button macro that executed the language change software.
