Windows doesn't like when I think too much.
This keeps happening to me from time to time. I'm doing one thing or other, typing, and in the middle of it I pause, thinking... And I just happened to be pressing Shift, Alt, Ctrl or some other control key at that moment, and after a few seconds (probably 5) computer starts beeping and it turned on some accessibility option. It's not hard to turn off, but damn it breaks my train of thought with that beeping.
So now I always turn those options off in Control Panel as soon as I install Windows. It also protects my computer from blind hackers.

All that can be easily fixed by installing THINK.NET - it is a bit pricey but many would say it is worth it.
For those cheap penny pinchers out there, Microsoft has release a free version, THINK.NET Express

Re: Windows doesn't like when I think too much.
I remember we used to turn on 'sticky keys' (press Shift 5 times quickly) on school computers and other publicly accessible computers. It was hilarious to watch people's faces when they used the computer and it started beeping uncontrollably every time they press shift, control, alt, or any of those keys. They had no idea what was going on.

Re: Windows doesn't like when I think too much.
Why not turn off that feature once and for all? Which OS are you using? XP/Vista/Win7?

I do, as I mentioned in my last sentence. I use XP and W7. I sometimes forget to do it after an installation, so it catches me at some point and then I turn it off.

That's true, but Express version only lets you use half of your brain, no complex maths operations, and speak only one language.

Unfortunately it's meant for the help desks in India, so guess what that one language is...

No it's not, I think you might be referring to SCRIPT.NET
