    Hi Folks

    My notebook is playing up. some on the letter keys on the might like "m" "l" "p" are coming up as numbers when I type them. The notebook has also gone very very slow and I can't open up anything if I click on the icons on my desktop. I notice on the panel just above the keyboard where it shows if you have caps lock on or not there is a little padlock sign with a 1 in the middle. Any idea what is going on??

    Thanks so much for any help you can give.

    Miranda

    Sounds like your Num Lock is on (like the Caps Lock), turn it off.. But I don't see how that would be making your computer become slow.

    Try restart and do a scan for adware
