Bizarre Arrows

[Sighter]

Hello All,

I have this weird thing that started recently and i have no clue where it comes from. Whenever I use the arrows back or forth it go back an entire
word, also my "Delete" Key is doing the same, if I try to erase one letter,
it erase the entire word.

This is accuring all over OSX on my PowerBook 550. whatever the application.
the classic mode is not affected by this.

System and everything else is up to date.. I have no clue..???

Your Option key may be stuck. Clean your keyboard. Or you may have Sticky Keys on. Check the Universal Access preferences.

Try those two first. The Option key when pressed while hitting an arrow or delete goes entire words. So that is most likely the problem.

thanx, I've unpluged the external keyboard and realized it wasnt doing it then. I cleaned it and its fine.. Totally forgot that the option key was providing that option.... Oups!

thanx again
