Not to harp on Codeview, but I too experience a 'sticking' control key when I
quit Codeview session, assuming my session did not lead to a 3 finger salute.
Solution : hit the control key. Another, more serious bug :

The code :
                      case 1 :
                           bBoolean = true;
                           ...
                           ...
                           break;

                      case 2 :
                           bBoolean = true;
                            /* different code here */
                           break;

So, I set a breakpoint at the first bBoolean = true statement under case 1.
Breakpoint is correctly met. I hit f8 (step) or f10 (step, not trace), and
the code executed is the code immediately after bBoolean = true under
case 2!! For a moment, I thought there was some silly flaw in the MSC 6.0
code generation. I produced a listing file, and found that this was not
the case. Solution : do not set bp at bBoolean = true;.

I do have a AMI bios, so maybe that's it.
