Use a different keyboard and see if it goes away.

It's a laptop, I already did a Restart.

Seems to be subsiding.

Fairly new computer, I don't have a Virus Protection yet, thinking about McAfee, only using the free Spybot right now............recommendations ?

I like StA's troubleshoot first. Plug in a USB keyboard and see what happens.

It's most likely a stuck key or a stuck mouse button (like a piece of food or sticky substance is stuck in there..).
