Silly question, but...Did you try changing out the keyboard to rule out
hardware failure?

Hi

The computer thinks that the ctrl key is pressed down. Trying to type in
Word is not possible. Pressing v simply pastes the clipboard as if Ctrl was
pressed.

If I start STICKY keys and the press a key say "a" it will type "a" to the
screen and then turn off STICKY Keys so once again Ctrl is pressed.

I am guessing this is caused by an unwanted program/service running on the
computer.

Has any one got any ideas?
