Default clicks w/keystrokes & no double keystroke w/o waiting 5 seconds.

Some how my MS Word has become programed to give me 'clicking' sounds, even
with the speakers off, with each key stroke plus even more maddening is I can
not type "double" letters, ie, tt, dd, etc without waiting 5 seconds between
key strokes. It gets even worse in that if I wanted to backspace (or delete)
more than one character at a time, the five second time delay also applies.
Same for space bar. HELP - - - GET ME OUT OF THIS MESS!!!

In Windows, click on Start | Control Panel | Accessibility
Options | Keyboard tab | uncheck the boxes for "Use FilterKeys"
and "Use StickyKeys" | OK.
