I've had the same thing happen even when CA/400 wasn't running. It
also can happen with SHIFT and CTRL.

There is a feature in Windoze for the disabled that is called "Sticky
Keys". This allows multi-key functions without simultaneous keys. It
seems that even when the feature is not turned on it sneaks in when
you least want it. The un-stick is to press the ALT, SHIFT, CTRL
again.
