in Techie Stuff
I am having a strange problem with my laptop.
When trying to navigate every click is opening a new window.
So to write this post, I have MSE forums index in first window, another for techie stuff and a third for new thread.
Also my home, page up, page down, end keys are not working and arrow keys won't scroll. I must use the bar on the right hand side.
Further when in my gmail account a window pops up when trying to open mail saying a pop up blocker is preventing.
So far I can't see any browser (firefox 2) faults or settings changed.
I did ( embarrassingly
) fall asleep with a hand on the keyboard. Who knows what I may have pressed or short cut enabled etc.
I am using a Sony Vaio VGN-FE31H with XP SP2 and firefox.
Any ideas to undo/fix it as it's a right PITA.

That would be the obvious answer.
