Shift Key goes back a page when browsing...

I have a Logitech MX Duo Cordless Keyboard And Mouse, and just recently it's been doing some weird stuff. Well actually just one key. Everytime I use the right shift key when using Internet Explorer it will send me back a page. I'm confused as to why it's doing this, because I don't remember doing this in the past, and it seems to have just started today. Has anyone else had a problem like this? Or should I just contact Logitech directly and ask them? Thanks for the help....

I've never had that problem & I've used Logitech keyboards before. I would contact them directly, as I'm sure they offer tech support! Sounds like there's a circuit issue, but if you go to them, the will probably replace it...is it still in warranty? Good luck!

Is it a web or multimedia keyboard. If so you got some software to map keys to functions. Start that up and see if the Right Shift is maped to the browsers back button. That software is flakey sometimes so give it a whirl.

The keyboard is less than a month old, so yes, it should be under warranty. I have e-mailed Logitech and got a response this morning. They told me to clear the capacitors in the keyboard, and if I still have problems after that, then I should unistall everything using the clean boot procedure. So I'll give those things a try. And if I'm still having problems, I'll exchange it for a new one...

EDIT: I plugged in a different keyboard, and it didn't do that. So i did a system restore back a few days and it seems to be working fine now Thanks for your help...
