Acer aspire one d255e keyboard issue

[kissrawks]

I have an Acer Inspire One d255e, running Windows 7 startup.
When I have a browser running (IE, Chrome or Opera), I type anything and a number comes up on display, going in order 1-0. I can cut and paste or have a password saver program put username/passwords in without a problem. Occassionally this will occur when I am in a non-internet based application, but I just close and re-open and the problem is gone.
When I press the windows key and type, I get normal typing, until I hit a shortcut.
Since the keyboard is small, I mistype more and I am fairly convinced I hit a hidden combination of keys. Acer says it's a software problem and not covered under the warranty.
Any combination with numblock doesn't fix anything.
Please help!

i have noted and will do a safe mode scan.

something interesting. i installed the comcast security constant guard suite and the probnlem came back. i uninstalled, problem gone. so i just installed the norton software that is free with comcast w./o the constant guard thing and it is still working as it should be.
