OS/X newbie with really annoying problem.

[moshen]

I just got my powerbook, switching from a PC as my main laptop. I noticed an annoying problem with iChat.

Sometimes when I'm typing a response, the line I was typing will get deleted in the middle of the sentence. This has happened for a while, and seems to be pretty random. I'm pretty sure I'm not hitting any other keys that would erase the whole sentence. Im certain Im not touching the trackpad either.

I read that a few other people have seen this problem too. Is there a solution?

thanks

no you are hitting another key as well.. i forget what it is though. i used to have the same problem. i just got better at typing and it disappeared

maybe someone can clue you in to what that key is.. but i've forgotten and my messing around hasn't found it.
