That is a bug Slowkeys should turn on only if key is held down for 8 seconds and there is NO action on the keyboard or mouse.
Ditto for StickKeys. 5 shift keys with NO other keys and NO mouse use. Gregg -- ------------------------------ Gregg C Vanderheiden Ph.D. Professor - Ind. Engr. & BioMed Engr.

However, there is an accessibility feature that I find particularly annoying: If accessibility and Mouse Keys are enabled, and you hold down the shift key for more than 8 seconds, a popup appears, requesting: "Would you like to activate Slow Keys?" When using certain applications, it is quite common to hold the shift key or another key down for 8 seconds during normal work, for multiple graphical item selection, for example. The unwanted appearance of the Slow Keys dialog is quite annoying. In addition to its annoying presence, it causes the keyboard to stop working in all applications until you press Cancel. I would recommend disabling this automatic popup, or allowing the user to selectively disable it. I think the former solution is better, because if a user is able to turn on keyboard accessibility he/she can also turn on Slow Keys manually. Thanks for considering this request.
