I happened to notice several Win32 boxen, spontaneously have problems
with the shift key. When rebooted all installed automatic updates and
the problem went away. Basically the shift key functioned in reverse
making typing irritating.
Somebody hit the caps lock key. Hit it again and the typing will be back to
normal.
No reboot needed.
Actually any sane person will reconfigure the keyboard controls such that
the shift key resets the caps lock as well, like in good old times.
