Do not know if this is Thinkpad related, but this morning when I wanted to enter a password for a forum, the letters appeared in the opposite directione, ie bag, came out as gab, the new letter did not appear behind the previóus one, but in front of it. This happened when waking up from standby and got cured after a restart. Can someone offer an explanation.
Thanks, Stephan

No, very strange. Did you type it in, and it appeared like this, or was the password saved on your computer and it automatically showed up?

No, I typed the password in manually, because the username was not accepted: I usually type in the first letter(s) and then the full name appears (which I click), but in this case it did not accept the name.

Sweep your system for spyware, etc. Sounds like a "bug".
