Words typing backwards?

I have a PC that is acting extremely weird! When I type on it all the words go backwards.

For example. If I type "Hello to everyone!" on that pc it will come out like

"everyone! to Hello"

I looked in the startup and the registry and there isn't anything getting started.

get yourself avg and Adaware, scan your computer for viruses and trojans.

also make sure you have your text set to go from left to right.

Maybe someone installed a prank program without you knowing about it.

So when you typed this message to us, you put in:

backwards. go words the all it on type I When weird! extremely acting is that PC a have I

That's just plain freaky.

I've heard of prank programs that flips screens upside down and do crazy things with text, so it's def. a possibility. Just search google for "prank computer programs" to see what's out there. Or I guess you'd have to search for "programs computer prank"
