Accidently hit the shift key five times and a sticky keys dialogue came up.WTH!

Anyone else know it was there?

Is it your first time to see that? You should play with the Accessibility Options
I unticked the "Use shortcut" in the Sticky Keys settings... and the other boxes too

News to me Humpty, but how can you accidentally hit the same key 5 times?

Possibly the old enlightenment juice...

Only half way there Dennis atm!

I was trying to get cap locks off.

Back to light beer I think.

It makes a funny sound when you do this.
I was playing some game a long time ago with headphones on and when the dialog box came up and it made that sound I thought something screwed up.

I hate sticky keys,
Always knocks me out of a game,
It pops up in a game since most games FPS/ThirdPS use that shift key for something... crouch/duck/jump etc....

fraid whether you un-tick these options, hitting shift key 5+ times in a row will bring up this option.
Quite ironic really as I spilt a beer over my keyboard last week, and I really do have a 'sticky' keyboard....!!!

Well hit it five times, then click the settings button for each option, untick the box there too, that should kill sticky keys for good.

I unticked every box I could find in the StickyKeys section and no more dialogs for me! I just pressed 5 shift keys in a row and nothing happens

Here's the settings
