    :mad: While playing Unreal Tournament quite intenselly, there appeared a message on StickyKeys. Probably since then, I have not been able to press the same key consecutively without waiting two seconds! It's a great pain -- does anyone know a solution?

    In the Control Panel, go to Accessibility Options and there should be a Sticky Keys option there. You should be able to disable it.

    I knew it was in there somewhere. Pardon for my ignorance, but I am a WinXP newbie after all. Thank you. You're a lifesaver! Can you imagine how crappy it was playing Unreal Tournament with "FilterKeys" option on?!? -- short to impossible.

    I experienced the same when playing CS. It gets quite annoying. Glad I helped!
