precisly the same problem as me, and im fully updated with service packs
'n everything, both enter and return key stop working, i have to reboot
to ge them working again.

i've actualy got the problem right now, ive had to copy and paste line
breaks from an email message to put in the blank line between these
paragrahs. But i cant restart pc yet,and its really getting annoying.

this has to be an issue with the service packs from m$
