This again sounds like the problem we had at work, with international language support, where pressing ctrl-shift-T switched some Microsoft rich edit boxes into right-to-left Hebrew mode. The shortcut for some of the Language Bar options is ctrl-shift, and it seems to be intercepted and used by Windows before Window-Eyes can grab it as a hotkey and prevent this sort ofmayhem. Check to see what you have under Regional and Language Settings in Control Panel (Windows XP). I don't know how to fix this, but this is a clue.
