I've had occasional similar problems where it's been related to my keyboard running amok. In those cases, I have to unplug and replug in (it's a PS2 keyboard with a USB convertor) and things go back to normal. Also, occasionally, my space bar will go crazy and just insert spaces and it looks like it's wiped out all the words when in actually it has really just added 20 pages of spaces!! It only happens to me maybe once a month or so, though, and I've never lost an entire document, but that's because I've almost gotten used to it so that it doesn't startle me quite as much and I can take immediate corrective action.

Technology...gotta love it!
