Ah! I think this must be it. I know I've seen Control-C and Return linked in
other computer environments in the past. Control-C alone does it just as
Cmd-Control-C does. I also have seen another combination (which escapes me
at the moment) where Cmd-Control-letter is interpreted as if it were just
Control-letter. Ah! I remember now: Control-N launches the script to make a
note from a message; so does Cmd-Control-N, and it should not.

I don't have KeyQuencer and never had it. I used to have QuicKeys, but not
on this machine. However, I do have other things that intercept keystrokes,
so I will play around with disabling them: SpellCatcher, TypeIt4Me, and
Better Edit Keys. Anyone else displaying the Cmd-Control-C = open-it
syndrome have any of these?

There seem to be two problems here. One is clearly generic if it happens in
file dialogs (Control-C = Return).

The second, Cmd-Control = Control, seems to occur only in Entourage for me
(haven't tested it elsewhere but haven't seen it anywhere else yet).
