    Exclamation weird behavior with command keys

    My mom managed to turn on some "feature" in 10.1.1 that now, everytime she presses the shift, control, option, or apple keys a little translucent symbol for each pops up at the bottom of the screen.

    This is really annoying. How do I turn this off? TIA.

    That sounds like 'sticky keys'; in System Preferences, go to Universal Access, and under the Keyboard tab, Sticky Keys is probably on.
