Weird typing problem(possibly only Mozilla problem)

Hopefully this post will show some of the problems that I keep having when I type. When I am typing, sometimes the cursor backs up a letter and scrambles words up(such as: pacaken--pancake). Anyone know what is going on? It may be a Mozilla problem only because it hasn't affected anything I write elsewhere.

Hmm I guess the computer knows what it is doing and wants me to be a liar and is not showing what it is doing now.

May be a problem between your computer and your version of Mozilla.
Are you up to date on Mozilla? 1.0.7?

I am on Mozilla, and it's working fine...whoops, now I can't click on the smilie icons!

I got that problem when I used my mum's laptop a few days ago. I just lived with it, I don't know what you can do. I just wait until the whole machine packs up and then format.

I'm pretty sure it'd have to be your computer, somehow. I run on two different versions of Mozilla, depending on which computer I'm on in the house, and haven't had any problems.

Best of luck, though.

IE is impossibly easy to hack, dude. (Edit: I mean for hackers, not for the common girl who spends two to three hours a day playing minesweeper and doing her job online (aka me))

Which is why I use Mozilla or variants thereof.

Duh.

Eh. I don't really care about IEvs.Mozilla one way or the other. I use both on occassion, depending on which the mouse is closest to.

Mozilla 1.7.12 here. Used on Linux system and a MS W2k system, as the mood strikes me.

No problems.

Are you using Mozilla?

Or Firefox, or some netscape thingie, or ?

Log out, clear your cache, and log back in. That fixed it for me. :)
