I have a very weird problem that doesnt make any sense to me. My microsoft calculator program will randomly open itself up. I havent narrowed down exactly why this happens, but im pretty sure it may have something to do with me being connected to the internet. I am not sure because I have broadband so im always online. It seems to open up the most when im playing counter-strike (online game) which is really frustrating considering it exits the game just bc the ******* calculator opened. This sometimes happens many times in a sort span of time or few in a long span. I can say there really isnt much consistancy to it, and as I am typing this one just opened. I have a firewall and I virus protection, so im pretty sure it wouldnt fall into one of those categories. I have recent drivers for all except mobo and os. I am about to install a new service pack so if that fixes it I will re-post, other than that- im running Xp pro, asus a7n8x-deluxe, 1024mb ram, amd xp3000+, radeon 9800pro

Check to see what your Calculator hot-key is.

Also check your .cfg file and see if you use the keys in the hot-key for Calculator in your .cfg.

Good luck.
