My computer was just typing backwards. I couldn't work out what was going on. Was it infected? anyway, I googled this query ,"my computer is typing backwards" and got this solution from Matt:
Okay the weirdest thing happened to me today ...
So I jiggled my arrow keys and unplugged and replubbed in my mouse, and all was right with the world.
it was running pretty close there for ten minutes.
phew.
Thanks Matt.
My computer was typing backwards online, but not in word, after I tried uploading a video to a ning.com site. I think there is something wrong with the Java on the page there.

I'd be keeping away from ning if I were you then.

Mine did the same thing... how frustrating! I don't know why, but I just restarted my computer and it was all good. I was only on the Google page though!

J. Get some canned air, and blow the nozzle behind your arrow and backspace keys. See if it blows out the dust which is probably causing the problem.

My computer was actually typing alone in my busy office....I called IT and reported an infection. Five worried techies showed up all talking at the same time, it continued, even after yanking the internet connection......until they found I had activated the 'voice to text' key!!
