I think you need to do some diagnostics for us to help. These are fairly standard steps for many of these sorts of problems.
First of all try to see if this is a Screenreader or a Windows problem. The easiest way to do this is to load another Screenreader to see if the problem persists. For example if you are using Jaws then switch to the free NVDA or Thunder Screenreader . If the problem persists across different screen readers this tends to indicate a Windows problem. If it is specific to say Jaws then we can narrow things down a bit. If you have sighted assistance they can also report if the problem persists without any Screenreader loaded. Rather than go through all the possible outcomes and actions try this and report back and we'll probably be able to advise further. If you are using Jaws I can make some suggestions. There are some changes to Windows settings which may also help. It would be useful also to know if there has been any software installed recently on your system.

Recently I started to have a weird problem while typing; suddenly some signs get added just like that to the text; those are mainly accents or inverted exclaims or such weird signs not much used or even hardly readable by JAWS; and I don't even have to be close to the keys to press them by accident, they just get added at random. Any idea what would cause this and how to fix it? Thanks in advance for any help.
