Every time I press the "W" key while in a game (So far it has happened while playing Ace of Spades and Killing Floor), my computer will switch from the game to the new Firefox browser that was created. How do I stop a new Firefox browser from opening by pressing "W"? This problem just started happening today when I updated to Firefox 4.0

I use a "gaming" keyboard that has an extra area for WASD and other keys using for gaming and for some reason it is only the gaming W that does it, any idea why that is?

Ok, going out on a limb:

Check your keyboard doesn't have a game/computer switch which alters how the keyboard works.

In game mode, the keys may be re-assigned.

Also check if there isn't a keyboard "driver"/handler program running which can be set/configured to do thing when certain keys are pressed.

Sorry can't be of more help.

I've got no idea how to change anything with the keyboard, but why would the problem start with Firefox 4?
