Ghost? by Chris4 on 07-04-2006 at 04:22 PM

For some reason, I'm typing on WLM now, and it's adding words like "and", "to" "mail :" and "," completely randomly. I left computer for 5 minutes and this appeared in the textbox "thethatand,and". The words just appear, not as if they are being typed. It just started happening out of the blue.

It's like someone else is on my computer (hacker? :S)

But it only happens on WLM, it's not happening when I'm typing this.

It sounds more like a bug with a script or something? :S

I just replaces the batteries for the keyboard and it's still doing it. :S

I'm doing a anti-virus and spyware scan at the moment, i'll restart afterwards, should fix it, just weird though.

disable all scripts and try again....
remote possibility: malicious scripts
what scripts do you have and where did you download them?

I've eliminated it down to '+speech'

Happens when it's enabled, doesn't happen when it's disabled.

All the scripts I have are from official site or forums.

I don't have speech recognition on but it still does it :S


RE: Ghost? by RaceProUK on 07-04-2006 at 11:22 PM

I'm seeing if mine does it as we type ;)

If by speech recognition you mean the script then I don't know. But I remember I use to have a similar problem with the speech recognition program installed with Office. It use to just start up randomly then proceeded to type out crap.

Try to disable it (I've never found out how to remove it, google it I suppose). If it isn't that then I am clueless.

Disable +Speech OR go into the +Speech .js files, find the bit about the type/clear/delete commands, and comment it out:)It's what I did.

The same thing happened when i had the +Speech script i just dissabled it, i didn't use it much anyways, and it stopped.
Or do what .lou did
