Weird hotkey in internet explorer. How do I turn it off?
I am running multipule displays at work. Four to be exact.(two on top, two on bottom...square shape) When I have internet explorer open and I am typing in a search field IE: google, yahoo, youtube ect.... anytime I hit the "e" key it maximizes my window to all four screens. Anytime I hit the "c" key it brings ALL of my open windows and minimized windows to the bottom right screen. Very weird and I've never ran into this problem before. Any suggestions? Thanks guys/gals

your [windows-logo-flag-key] is probably stuck down.
replace the keyboard with the power off and computer unplugged.
you may have an IT/IS department for this kind of thing, so be sure to call them for this. mind you, those calls are expensive on the budget.
a possible workaround for sometimes what is just a temporary glitch is to hit in sequence the shift, ctrl, alt, [windows-logo-flag-key], both of each, caps lock, scroll lock, num lock. then repeat to put things back to normal.
sometimes the OS gets a software glitch due to cosmic rays or bit rot or whatever.
but if it's ALWAYS this way, then you have a stuck key and you need to replace the keyboard. you can try pulling up on the key slightly and see if this fixes it. but ultimately you need to replace the keyboard. I suggest for desktops a PS2 keyboard and for laptops a genuine replacement or as a workaround that you get a usb keyboard.
if you like the old IBM tactile and audible feedback keyboards (kinda loud, but I liked those, helped me type faster and better), then unicomp makes those unique bucking spring keyboards for IBM. keytronic makes keyboards for $9+
