m and n have switched on my keyboard...

The letters 'm' and 'n' have been switched. I type 'm' and it comes out as 'n'. I remember something about a virus so I run my anti-virus (no result) and search the web (some results).

       Cone om! I’n beconimg imsame!

It's so annoying. Maybe someone is fooling around with me.

A quick glance at another keyboard: it's not that 'm' types 'n' -- the keys themselves changed places... each sits at the other one's location. A quick pull of the keys, stucking them again back into their right position and everything is great!

After a short investigation it appears that my 6 years old son, who is using my computer for playing, accidentally popped out the 'm' and 'n', then put them again in place quickly before I'll notice. Well, almost in place... He didn't intentinally planned for giving me a hoax, though it came out quite a good one for his age.
