Ok so after a little mis-hap with some soda last night, my backspace key on my keyboard is a little hard to use now. It's kinda sticky under the key, hard to push, gets stuck when I press it down and all that. Can I take it out to clean it so it works right? If so, how do I take it off without breaking it? lol

Keyboard keys should just be able to pop right off. You could then unplug the keyboard and use a Q-Tip with some rubbing alcohol on it to remove the sticky stuff.

LuLu, just a bit of trivia, do you know about the "other" sticky keys?

Hit the shift key five times. ;)

That was one of the first things I disabled when I first got XP back in 2003. :lol:
